Since its founding in 1978, the Dellora A. Norris Cultural Arts Center has provided a world-class visual and performing arts venue for the enjoyment of the residents of the Fox Valley area and Northern Illinois.

The Norris, a generous gift to the Fox Valley from the Norris Foundation, includes an exceptional art exhibition gallery and a 1,000-seat theater with the stage area, acoustics, lighting and mechanicals to host the most elaborate performances.

With the support of generous donors, benefactors and friends who care about bringing top-caliber talent to the Fox Valley, the Norris continues presenting a great lineup of exhibits and performances. Please join us in supporting the performing and visual arts!

The Norris Gallery

In addition to hosting art exhibits featuring all major genres of visual art, The Norris Gallery has become one of the area’s most vibrant venues for smaller scale concerts and other performances.

Music in the Gallery

The Norris presents a series of concerts in the gallery, featuring a variety of styles and genres. The east gallery provides an intimate venue for up to 150 concert patrons.

Art in the Gallery

Since opening in 1978, the Norris Gallery has hosted hundreds of exhibits featuring the work of thousands of artists. Check here for the latest gallery news.
