The Zona Gale Center is dedicated to the enhancement and cultural growth of those living in Portage and surrounding communities. The center has been developed for and is used by citizens and organizations sharing the goal of making life in this area a rich and rewarding experience. The Zona Gale Center was named for Zona Gale Breese, a Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and author. She was born and reared in Portage and referred to it as "Friendship Village" in the many stories she wrote about her hometown and its residents. Located on the east edge of the downtown businesses district at the corner of East Cook Street (HWY 33) and Adams Street, the Center occupies a building that was one of Portage's oldest churches. It is only one block north of the historic Portage Canal and across from convenient parking in the Market Square parking lot.
