Come What May: Start a subscription for $51 and get our latest issue

To celebrate May Day alongside NYRA’s septennial, we’re offering a special promotion. From now until May 7, we’re cutting the price of an annual subscription to $51. That’s a full year of the most rambunctious and imaginative urban criticism around for less than a single New York wine bar chicken.

And on May 7, right as this special discount is expiring, we’ll be fêting the launch of NYRA #50 with a party and open bar at Brooklyn’s Van Alen Institute. It’s sure to be a special night, and we have a few party tricks up our sleeve for the release of our landmark fiftieth issue (one of which might help answer the question about Metro Mall above). Tickets are available here; subscribers can attend for just $7, and get tickets for their plus-ones at the same rate. Please join us! The future will only crush us under the boot of its inhumanity and ugliness if we let it. And did we mention there’s an open bar?

Start your subscription using this page, and don’t wait: A sale like this only comes once a year. Offer ends on 5/7 at 11:59 p.m. ET.
