Jack Campin, that's another good idea! We have discussed stockpiling the excess for the occasional guest artist who may not be available any other way. I'm kind of reluctant to do that, mainly because we have so many great musicians here in town, people that I'd like to see make some money from their art. In other words, I'd like to see them make some of the "hundreds of dollars that can be made" from folk music. :)

There are a good many workshops and music camps and music teachers available in Juneau, mostly for youngsters. What I would like to see is songwriting clubs and workshops, harmony workshops, drop-in jamming places, things along that line. Ideally, we would have/rent/own a public place for all those things plus more - the problem is that we don't want to charge more for these concerts, which means that we won't have enough money any time soon. :)

Once a year, at Alaska Folk Festival time, we have all those things but that week goes by awfully fast.
