  • Marcia Rosberg Retrospective

    CLOSED: This discussion has concluded.

    RETROSPECTIVE: The Works of Marcia Rosberg

    Currently showing at the Jericho Town Hall is a retrospective of the work of Jericho artist Marcia Rosberg (1936--2021). Marcia was a long time resident of Jericho moving here in 1967. She had been an artist for an even longer time. Marcia often participated in the Town Hall art shows and we were glad when her family agreed to a showing of her work that spanned her career. Pieces are representative of her early years and up to the present.

    Marcia considered herself a self taught artist with a lifetime of drawing and painting experience. But she also expanded her skills with classes from UVM and participated in the Vermont Studio Center in Johnson. She has exhibited extensively through out Vermont and received a number of awards.
