T2F,The popular public space where people of all shades and hues gathered and discussed everything from pop art to political strife, has claimed that it has run out of funds. Founder of T2F Sabeen Mehmud uploaded a note on the T2F website and Facebook, calling for support and generating funds.
An excerpt from the note reads, “We are reaching out to you, the community that powers T2F to come together and help us with this year’s operating system maintenance and upgrades. If a lot of people contribute just a little, we can keep the dream alive and we are confident that we will get by with a little help from our friends.”
“One option is to increase the ticket prices of our shows, but if we do that, then we would not be able to accommodate a lot of people in our space,” she adds. Someone even recommended charging people money from those who can afford it on entrance at T2F, but how do we determine who can and cannot afford to pay?” said Mehmood.
The note marks the beginning of the fundraising campaign, which will be followed by events organised by artistes to generate funds for the setup.
