SUMMARY:Sunday Reset with Dope Botanicals
DESCRIPTION:Step into the exhibition and come play in the apothecary.\n\n\nPromise Work: A Shaker-Inspired Spring Reset\nInspired by the Shakers’ bottled remedies—and the bold promises printed on historic labels—this hands-on Sunday Reset is a workshop where you get to reset your nervous system and create your own herbal ritual. You will craft your very own herbal remedy for the support you need. \nYou’ll sip on spring-forward herbal tastes\, then jump into our Medicinal Herb Match Lab. You will choose the “promise” you want most right now\, learn the herbal actions behind it\, and build a custom tea blend that fits your body and the season. \nYou’ll leave with: a custom tea blend + a ritual card and a simple weekly routine. \n \nThis program is part of our monthly series\, Sunday Reset\, which features Philadelphia area practitioners working at the juncture of art and wellness. \n \nAbout the instructors\nSisters Nakia and Taahirah Stith have spent over 30 years using food as medicine\, guided by the principles they were raised with—respect for self\, community\, and the earth. Their shared vision for holistic wellness led them to co-create Dope Botanicals\, where they combine their expertise and passion. Every tincture\, tea\, and elixir they create is handmade in small batches\, using organic herbs sourced from trusted farms. At Dope Botanicals\, Nakia and Taahirah’s synergy is at the core of every product. Nakia’s deep knowledge of plant medicine blends seamlessly with Taahirah’s understanding of nutrition. Together\, they craft remedies that reflect their lifelong commitment to true\, intentional healing. In a fast-paced world where wellness is often commodified\, Nakia and Taahirah stand firm in their mission to offer authentic\, plant-powered solutions. \n \nAbout the exhibition\nA World in the Making: The Shakers explores the design legacy of the Shakers\, a religious group whose values of community\, labor\, and equality shaped their furniture\, architecture\, and everyday objects. Through works by contemporary artists influenced by the Shakers\, alongside original Shaker-made pieces\, the exhibition considers how their design principles remain relevant today. \nFounded in 18th-century England and later established in the U.S. across more than twenty distinct communities\, from Kentucky to Maine\, Shaker communities developed a distinctive visual language—marked by simplicity\, innovation\, and purpose. While often celebrated for their aesthetic\, Shaker designs were rooted in spiritual practice and collective life. \nBy pairing historical artifacts with newly commissioned works\, the exhibition invites reflection on how Shaker ideals continue to inform conversations around inclusion\, gender\, and intentional living in the 21st century. \nThis exhibition was organized by the Vitra Design Museum\, the Milwaukee Art Museum\, the Institute of Contemporary Art Philadelphia\, and the Wüstenrot Foundation in collaboration with Shaker Museum. \nAccessibility\nICA is committed to creating a welcoming environment for all visitors. For more notes on accessibility including accessible parking nearby visit our Accessibility landing page. If you require any accessibility accommodations or have any questions about the program\, please contact us at hello@ica.upenn.edu. \nSupport \nProgramming at ICA is made possible in part by the Emily and Jerry Spiegel Fund to Support Contemporary Culture and Visual Arts and the Lise Spiegel Wilks and Jeffrey Wilks Family Foundation. Public and Student Engagement at ICA is supported by the Bernstein Public Engagement Fund\, Suzanne Weiss Doft & Jacob W. Doft\, Stacey & Robert Goergen Jr.\, Hilarie L. & Mitchell Morgan\, the Nash Family Foundation\, Joline & David Stemerman\, and by Dana McDonald Strong & Mark W. Strong.

SUMMARY:Sunday Reset with Coach Shay
DESCRIPTION:Led by Sound practitioner & yoga instructor Coach Shay\, this breathing and somatic movement workshop will contemplate embodied devotion.\n\n\nThe Shakers believed that labor was worship — that every gesture\, every made thing\, carried spiritual intention. This month’s Sunday Reset draws participants into that same inquiry: What does it mean to move with purpose? To be still with purpose? To make something — even just a moment — with full attention? \n \nTaking inspiration from our current exhibition\, A World in the Making: The Shakers\, sound practitioner & yoga instructor Coach Shay will guide participants through 90 minutes\, guided breath\, intentional movement\, and deep stillness contemplating embodied devotion. \n \nThis offering is rooted in somatic movement\, breathwork\, and sound healing practice. It is designed to be accessible to participants with no prior experience in movement or meditation\, and can be adapted for a range of physical abilities and group sizes. Guests should be dressed comfortably and bring a light blanket and socks. All additional supplies will be provided. \n \nThis program is part of our monthly series\, Sunday Reset\, which features Philadelphia area practitioners working at the juncture of art and wellness. \n \nAbout the instructor\nCoach Shay is a fierce self-care/mental health advocate who educates and inspires others on best practices for living an easeful\, more balanced life. After years of working in high-demand corporate roles\, being deprived of rest and experiencing burnout\, she found healing and restoration in practicing yoga and mindfulness. Her journey ignited a passion to help others and in addition to teaching yoga\, she uses her gifts as a sound practitioner and holistic health coach as tools to help others destress and connect with their bodies and breath to find deep rest and healing. Her desire is to help all beings discover balance and vitality\, and as the founder of Inner Sanctuary Wellness in Rittenhouse Square\, she mindfully curates experiences and services that allow rest and offer rejuvenation for the mind\, body and soul. \n \nAbout the Studio \nInner Sanctuary Wellness is a sacred space dedicated to rest\, healing\, and self-connection. We offer boutique wellness experiences that honor your body\, mind\, and spirit through yoga\, sound baths\, meditation and curated sensory immersions. Our offerings are designed to help you slow down\, reconnect\, and find sanctuary within yourself\, leaving you feeling replenished\, centered\, and fully present. In a world that moves quickly\, offering very little time for pause\, Inner Sanctuary Wellness is an urban refuge for stillness\, decompression and release. \n \nAbout the exhibition\nA World in the Making: The Shakers explores the design legacy of the Shakers\, a religious group whose values of community\, labor\, and equality shaped their furniture\, architecture\, and everyday objects.
