 560 Railroad Community Artist Rebecca Jacoby will lead students in an exploration of abstract art, using a variety of methods and traditional and non-traditional “drawing tools”  and materials to express new perspectives and interpretations of reality. This class is for people with some art-making experience and a desire to discover (or dive deeper into)  the challenge and freedom of abstraction.  

Class fee: $75 (10% discount for Catamount Arts members).

Registration deadline: November 5, 2025

Rebecca Jacoby is a visual artist working in mixed media on paper and canvas. Her work is based on the natural world of woods, rocks, stones, and plant life and the crumbling buildings and sidewalks of the city. Through abstract processes and the use of color, texture, and collage elements she incorporates into each piece, Jacoby creates colorful, tactile worlds that evoke movement and geographic dreamscapes and celebrate process and materials. Jacoby received an MFA from Pratt Institute and lives and works in Philadelphia. Catamount Arts is hosting her for a month as part of the 560 Railroad Community Artist program.
