Maybe you've been there for a conference. Or maybe you've been there for one of its many live musical events.

But the next time you visit The Old Stone in downtown Bend, chances are it will be under new ownership. Owner Mardy Hickerson announced today that The Old Stone is up for sale, and no events will scheduled after Oct. 31 (that's yesterday, in case you were confused).

Hickerson said in a statement Nov. 1: "It has been a true pleasure, to have collaborated with so many artists, families and community groups that created beautiful, impactful and fun events. The Old Stone has a bright future in a growing town full of potential."

The property, built in 1913 as a church, and later used as a creative space and performing arts center, is available through Fratzke Commercial.
