The centre (and the two paid jobs) is supported entirely by the money that the shop brings in. The shop sells a mixture of Fairtrade goods and donated items. People can then use the rooms for whatever they wish, for next to no cost.
All you need is an empty place to rent, and to sell other people's unwanted goods. Involve everyone and be friendly. We have two paid staff and some volunteers.
On the Buses is classic comedy.

That's fantastic! There is a place like that here, called Myths & Mirrors, but they have moved into the shitty area of town, the gov't kicked them out I believe.. don't know for sure though, so their isn't much happening with them lately... Used to be a great place for shows, real intimate-like. I saw the Doers and Run Chico Run (two fantawesometic Vancouver bands) there back in ...2004??? One of the best local shows of all time.
