Art on exhibit at Gallery One

By Audrey Carpenter

Loudoun County Arts Curator Steena Fullmer hangs several pieces of art from the private art collection of Leesburg resident Tom Jewell at Gallery One, located in the lobby of the Loudoun County Government Center on Nov. 6.

Jewell donated over 100 pieces of art to the Loudoun County government in 2020. His collection represents a wide array of art forms and styles, including both 2D and 3D art.

Gallery One exhibits are coordinated by the Loudoun County Art Advisory Committee whose members are appointed by the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors. The committee is responsible for exhibiting work by Loudoun artists and maintaining and exhibiting the county’s permanent art collection. 

County residents who would like to have their art displayed can contact the Art Advisory Committee for consideration. The Art Advisory Committee maintains a permanent collection of roughly 90 pieces, including sculpture and ongoing rotated exhibits.

The public can view the current exhibit at 1 Harrison St. SE in Leesburg through Jan. 5, 2024.
