About Just Lookin' Gallery

Three decades of sharing African American fine art with collectors across the country

Our Story

Just Lookin' Gallery was conceived in 1990 with a clear mission: to specialize exclusively in original works by African American artists. From the very beginning, the gallery has been providing fine art for homes, offices, and private and public spaces.

In 1995, the gallery moved to its forever home at 40 Summit Avenue in Hagerstown, Maryland. The space offers over 2,500 square feet to display several thousand paintings, drawings, textiles, sculpture, and original prints by 20th and 21st century contemporary masters and legacy artists.

Work by our artists is included in private, corporate, and museum collections throughout the United States. Over three decades, we have educated and nurtured art lovers at every stage of their collecting journey — from beginners to connoisseurs.

Just Lookin' offers a range of quality works from hand-pulled prints to upper-end paintings. Our goal is to create an environment that allows lovers of fine art to become and grow as collectors. Any collector is certain to find many engaging pieces to start or add to a fine art collection.

Collecting with Just Lookin'

The walls at the gallery rotate constantly, with new art arriving often. Sometimes gallery turnover is faster than website updates, so we encourage you to call or email to check on the availability of pieces you're interested in. We're happy to discuss payment plans if that would be helpful.

Just Lookin' presents multiple artist exhibitions, both at the gallery and off-site, every year. There is never an admission charge, refreshments are always served, and bringing friends is encouraged.

Whether purchasing for a corporate collection or a private residence, Just Lookin' makes purchasing fine art a rewarding experience. We welcome collectors at all levels and stages.

Collector Experiences

If you love African American art or you want to learn about art in general, you must visit. I've known Eileen for over 20 years and have several works of art from her gallery, have met amazing artists there, and gained a wealth of knowledge from her.

Had a lovely exchange with Eileen and made some purchases that I am really confident about because of Eileen's unparalleled expertise, advice, and care. A real pleasure and I cannot wait to reach out again for more guidance as I begin to collect.
