Acoustic Folk In Las Vegas

Curmudgeon and I have friends who live in Las Vegas for part of the year. They've yet to find any regular (or even sporadic) acoustic folk venue.

They are enthusiastic supporters of our Portsmouth Maritime Folk Festival, but I know their tastes are eclectic as far as folk goes. Doesn't have to be strictly trad -- American '60s Folk Revival-type material (Kingston Trio, Peter, Paul and Mary, Chad Mitchell...that sort of stuff) as well as singer-songwriter stuff would be okay.

Anybody have any ideas?

The only folkie connection that I have in Las Vegas is the contra/country dance group, which of course involves DIY musicians: www.lasvegascountrydance.org. People there might have some suggestions.
