About Chehalem Cultural Center

The Chehalem Cultural Center is a vibrant, multi-use arts hub housed in a historic Central School building in Newberg, Oregon. Operated in partnership with the Chehalem Park and Recreation District, this venue offers flexible spaces for performances, workshops, exhibitions, and community events. Whether you’re attending a intimate show in the LaJoie Theatre, a flexible performance in the Black Box, or a larger gathering in the Grand Ballroom, you’ll find a welcoming, accessible space with thoughtful amenities. We’ll help you secure your seats with straightforward, no-fuss ticket access and provide practical details on parking, transit, and nearby lodging and dining.

Address: 415 E Sheridan St, Newberg, OR 97132. The center is a cornerstone of Newberg’s cultural scene, hosting events like Tunes on Tuesday in the Grand Ballroom and community festivals such as the Willamette Valley Lavender Festival.

Venue highlights include accessible seating and assisted listening in the LaJoie Theatre, a flexible Black Box space ideal for intimate performances, and a Grand Ballroom capable of seating up to about 300 for larger events. On-site parking is available with accessible spaces on Sherman Street, plus street parking and additional free lots on 2nd Street and behind the center. Transit options include Yamhill County Transit route 44/44X stops near Hancock and Blaine Street, as well as a Nap’s Thriftway stop for easy access. For visitors planning an overnight stay or a curated dining experience, we’ve partnered with local hotels and restaurants to offer convenient recommendations.

Each date and event at the Chehalem Cultural Center stands on its own, so you’ll see the seating, capacity, and setup vary by space and show. If you’re visiting for a multi-day festival or series, consider an individual planning approach for each day. And as always, we’re here to help you secure your seats with a straightforward booking process.
