Welcome to October Gallery

October Gallery is Celebrating 27 Years in the African American Art Industry and has operated a physical art gallery in Philadelphia, PA since 1985.
We have been connecting people with art for 27 years. We deliver magic and romance to the art experience.
October Gallery believes that art is for everyone. We like to compare ourselves to the Marriott Hotel chain. The Marriott is neither the Ritz Carlton nor Motel 6. It is a mid-range hotel. The company’s Web site states that the hotel offers packages of “fun filled days and wild nights that will fit any family’s budget without breaking the bank.” At the Marriott one can get an expensive or an inexpensive room depending on availability. October Gallery’s marketing philosophy is similar to that of the Marriott. We offer an art experience that will fit anyone’s budget, that does not have to break the bank. October Gallery’s average sale is between $400 and $800. The Gallery’s prices range from $25 to $25,000. read more…
My visit to Souzette Art Couture was great..I highly recommended all art lovers to go there and hav a luk..
She makes the best hats around. She is from London and has a great accent.

I have no preference to art when it comes to the appreciation, I am more of a computer based artisan these days, I used to sketch and paint, however these days I have transferred my creativity to Code Based Designs for websites and Graphical designs in Photoshop, however it is amazing what you can do with that program for your photography.

I am so jealous, I wish i was there I hear it was one to remember. Not to mention the amazing pieces within the art exhibits.
I was surfing this website and read an article about Vegans and was really impressed with the article. It spreads a very nice message and supports a brave cause indeed.. I strictly follow veganism and am very happy to see u support this cause..
Hip Hip Hurray for Vegans. Stay the course. It’s healthy living.
Yeah I agree with Hatim.. Very well crafted video that examines slavery & civil rights through Afro-American arts and sculptors.. Found it very inspirational!!
The idea of African American are simply American is really great and well expressed through art in the above video.. Its sends a remarkable message to the world.. Thanx for sharing this..
Great video. I have watched it several times and learn something different every time.
On the top of this page i see a beautiful potrait by one of my favourite and widely acclaimed artist Andrew Turner..I hav been regularly been in touch with all his works and i must suggest ‘Potrait of African American girl‘,‘Chris‘s Cafe are his most auctioned and popular paintings…
Its my first visit to this site and really am impressed with the content posted here and its great to see some wonderful articles and paintings from some renowned artists..Will now regularly visit and keep in touch..

I don’t know what this site looked like before, but I know I love it now. I love all the art work and the various articles that better educate me of the history of the African american man and woman.
A brilliant masterpiece by Andrew Turner..Provides a thorough insight into Afro-American culture preserves their legacy very well.
Turner was one great artist. We miss him dearly. He could paint anytime or anywhere. On almost any subject. He was a Master.
Would really luv to attend the Suzzette Art couture.. I‘ve already marked my calender..Expecting some gud designer work!!:-)
Suzzette’s hats are exquisite. She works hard to make one of a kind hats. Please check her out at her place.

Yes, we started in 1985 at 3805 Lancaster Ave, Philly, PA 19104. Those were good days and we grew tremendously over the years. Philadelphia and the Philadelphia art patron has been quite kind to us and have supported us through thick and thin. Our hats are off to all of those who have helped to keep African American art alive.
your website along with yourself bring inspiration and education to us all, for that my hat is off to you
wow 27 years that is amazing, it is so great to be a part of this community even if it is a subscriber of the feed I love just embracing the various artist pieces and learning about something new on every post I read.

Robin, your prize has been emailed to you. Thanks for the comment. October Gallery
This is a very well thought out site. The information is well organized and easy to find. I plan to visit and revisit this web site often. Best wishes to October Gallery.
spot on, I as well have been loving wandering through the various artists pieces within the huge volume of posts within the Blog. Thanks October Gallery.
What a wealth of knowledge, culture and spirit!!! I look forward to touring the Black History showcase….Continue to be a force in our community!!!
The Black History Showcase is a big hit yesterday, Sat. Lots of people and they were buying product as well. Hope to see you there today – Easter Sunday.
I had to dig through the archives but it looked like a really fun time and very informative for art and history enthusiasts alike.
Your site has a number of items that address the Vegan issue. I am not a Vegan, but a number of my friends are. It is so difficult to let go of the past and more forward. Vegan is just so different from the way I grew up and the food we eat as a kid. Finding places that sell all vegan food is also very difficult. If you are out and about and need to eat right away, it’s hard to find a Vegan joint. Oh well, life changes.
Being a vegan is not easy. Just hang in there. It is going to get better. The benefits out weight the difficulties in the long run. Thanks for the post.
The new look of your site is fabulous. It is very easy to use and full of lots of fun information.
I plan to visit your gallery on Greene St. the next time I am in Philadelphia.
Thanks for the LOVE.
Francis.
Thanks. We have been working on this new site for months. Come back and see us again.
I love this website. Nice job. The info is soooooo good. Keep up the good work.
