Has anyone out there ever considered the marketability of renting
practice space?  For instance, a group/individual needs a place to practice
or a piano to play on for practice.  Finding a church or other providers
of this opportunity involves perhaps some social interactions that some
people would rather pay a small fee to avoid.  This would be, perhaps, a
source of extra income for institutions that have pianos with time that
the pianos aren't being used.  The pratice space and piano could be
rented out for an hour or two, the fee would supplement the music
department's maintenance budget, or the technician would get some
additional exposure to the piano playing public, depending on who owned
the piano and the space it was kept in.
      If this has been tried, and worked or failed, what fees were
being charged?
