The Damascus Gymnasium is a historic school building on Arkansas Highway 285 in Damascus, Arkansas. It is a rustic 1-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a central clerestory section covered by a gable-on-hip roof, and side wings covered by a shed roof. The main entrance, on the east side, is sheltered by a gabled porch, with secondary entrances on the south side, each sheltered by a gable roof supported by large brackets. The gymnasium was built in 1933 with funding support from the Works Progress Administration.

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.
