The church provides a wonderful setting for a country wedding, with its spare architecture, its beautiful stone walls, surrounded by tall trees, standing next to a country road. The front courtyard is bordered by a low stone wall, making a perfect space for gathering after or before your event. |

The interior is painted white, creating a quiet, peaceful elegance. Flower arrangements stand out and the light from the north window creates a special atmosphere. Thanks to the excellent acoustics provided by the vaulted ceiling, it is possible to have one or two musicians perform wedding music on instruments as quiet as unamplified guitars. The church comfortably seats 100 people, but can easily acccomodate 125. Electricity, sanitary facilities and parking are available. If you are interested in using the church for your wedding, we would be happy to show it to you. To arrange to view of the inside of the church, or to obtain information about reserving the church, write to Marfy Goodspeed |

Every year, the Friends of the Locktown Stone Church sponsor a concert series to highlight the beautiful acoustics of this old building. We have found that classical music works especially well, and that Sunday afternoons in the fall are particularly enjoyable. |

2007 Mimi Conklin Upmeyer Concert Series |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
For many years the concert series at the Locktown Stone Church was managed by Mimi Upmeyer. At each performance Mimi would introduce the musicians and welcome the audience in her modest, charming way, making everyone comfortable, yet ready for something special. Because the success of concert series owes so much to her, it is named in her memory.
Jan and her fellow musicians have performed several times in the church over the years. Their approach to composers like Bach and Mozart seems perfectly suited to the church space. Jan also serves on our Advisory Board, helping to organize each year’s concert series. Sunday, October 21st Sunday, November 4th at 4 p.m. Notice of these concerts was mailed in August, and each concert was advertised in the Hunterdon Democrat. If you would like to be on our mailing list for future concerts, please send your name and address to us at P. O. Box 264, Sergeantsville, NJ 08557. We hope you will make time for some or all of these concerts. You will be well rewarded. The Riverside Symphonia is a tremendous asset for music lovers on both sides of the Delaware River.
