Teach Peace Prints is a small, woman-owned business led by Katama Murray, which focuses on printmaking and fiber techniques that utilize natural materials. As an eco artist, educator and naturalist, Katama is constantly inspired by patterns, shapes, and colors that dwell within these spaces and organisms. Since starting the Teach Peace Prints journey in 2020, Katama creates handmade products on paper and fabric using a variety of materials and processes, and continues to experiment with combining various techniques while mindfully collaborating with the natural world. Sewn, naturally dyed and printed by hand, TPP offers unique, one of a kind products for those who wish to bring elements of nature into their homes and daily lives. Featuring items such as everyday textiles, prints and creative supplies for fellow makers, each collection of work is seasonally inspired and is based on the importance of place. Katama believes that the process of making and constant learning in tandem with nature can help to encourage further awareness and appreciation of our natural surroundings.

Watercolor Foundations & Creative Exploration Workshop with Erica Qualey

This class meets for 8 sessions from Monday, January 26 through Monday, March 30 with a two week break from February 16-23. In the event of inclement weather, this class will meet on Zoom. Join us for an engaging 8-week watercolor journey designed to build strong foundational skills while encouraging you to confidently develop your own creative voice. This workshop blends structured learning with the freedom of personal exploration—much like a guided studio session. Each week, we’ll focus on a key watercolor technique or concept, supported by live demonstrations, group activities, and thoughtfully selected reference images to spark ideas. You’ll have dedicated time to apply what you’ve learned to your own work, with opportunities for both one-on-one guidance and supportive group feedback. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to deepen your understanding of watercolor, this class offers a nurturing environment to experiment, grow, and connect with fellow artists. During the final class session, participants will showcase their artwork in a celebration of their progress, creativity, and growth throughout the course.
