Our theatre is named after Portage's Pulitzer Prize winning author Zona Gale, whose play "Miss Lulu Bett" won the prize in 1921. An intimate theatre, it seats 246 people and has a semi-thrust stage. It is home to the Zona Gale Young People's Theatre, the Gale Singers Community Choir, as well as a six concert Performing Arts Series; it is also a regular location for Portage Area Community Theatre productions and other special events.

The Drury Gallery, named in honor of Charles & Eleanor Drury, whose generous donation made the gallery possible, is host to eleven exhibits each year. 

Portage Center for the Arts is available for rent as a meeting space for gatherings or small presentations, for performances, concerts, weddings, or other special events!
