Description:
Founded in 1968, it is the mission of Gallery Players to enhance the quality of life through the performing arts; operate an outstanding community theater and cultural center in the Northwest; serve as a major resource for cultural, educational, and economic development in the community; present skillful artists and outstanding arts educators; attract, develop, and showcase local talent of all ages; and cooperate with other organizations to expand local arts and tourism.

Special Notes:
The dream for a community theater in McMinnville began in the late 1960s. By 1968, a small, pioneering group had gathered enough momentum to begin productions in an art gallery on the campus of Linfield College. Ten years later, the organization had become successful enough to purchase the current building formerly an old auto garage and renovate it into a theater.

The Gallery's main stage theater seats 240 with reserved seating while the Arena Theater is "open seating" with 80 seats available.
