As lockdown was imposed, we wondered not just about the livelihood of artists but also about their state of mind, if they lost touch with their audience?
Being a thick community of people from art and culture, we decided to become the stage and the audience and fill the gap immediately. We turned the tables to invite one artist as an audience to the performance of another artist, for beautiful collaborations stem out as we observe others. We marketed the shows and personally invited those who could create shows with featured artists as things open.
This was the birth of The Maitri Project.
