This will probably sound corny, but...

I am so happy to see that the school I do some work out of is unboxing a buttload (no, I don't know the exact mathematical formuala to calculate the value of buttload) of brand new instruments.  A few years ago our district cut 5th grade orchestra and sold off all the instruments.  Apparently they have corrected that mistake and have devoted a good chunk of budget to bringing it back.

    That's awesome!
    It's been a disturbing trend to see the arts get the axe when schools talk budget cuts.

    I know so many music teachers who have been reduced to part time. :(

    Depressing, yes.
    Anyone who's interests are outside of economy/math/IT is feeling ... well like an outsider.
    The "traditional" general education  ( history, biology, languages and similar humanistics)
    doesn't easily give you decent incomes anymore, not to mention any form of fine arts.

    The benefit of being a middle aged amateur is the low number of years of frustration ahead of you.

    I have offered free studio time to any of their students who want it.
