Located on the first floor of the MAC, the gallery displays monthly art exhibits from a variety of cultural and artistic backgrounds.

This gallery was created out of a grass roots effort in 2004 as means to showcase emerging artists and cutting edge art forms.

In 2007 and 2008 the Davis Gallery experiences several significant upgrades and was doubled in size due to a grant from the Hazel Ruby McQuain Charitable Trust and community volunteer efforts.

The Mabel DeVries Tanner Theatre was dedicated in 1981, and the room serves as MAC's space for the performing arts.
