The Wetherby Gymnasium is a 4,000 seat multi-purpose arena at Morehead State University (MSU) in Morehead, Kentucky. It is named for former Kentucky Governor Lawrence Wetherby and was built in 1956.

Wetherby Gymnasium was the home of MSU's Eagles volleyball teams through the 2015 season. Prior to the Ellis Johnson Arena opening in 1981, it also hosted the MSU basketball team. In 2015, MSU began construction on a new facility for the volleyball teams, to be located in the Academic-Athletic Center. The MSU Eagles women's volleyball team played the final game at Wetherby Gym on November 11, 2015. MSU's master plan calls for the eventual replacement of the Wetherby building (along with the adjacent Laughlin Health Building) with a Music Academic and Performing Arts Education Building.
