Join us for a day of discovery, connection, and empowerment through the nature in our own backyard! We invite you to an enriching Wellness Monday led by Chenae Bullock, a knowledgeable and passionate licensed Indigenopathic practitioner from the Shinnecock Nation. Participants will be immersed in the rich traditions of Indigenous plant medicine, focusing on the unique flora native to our region.
A hands-on experience, this Wellness Monday offers attendees the opportunity to engage with several Indigenous plants, including cedar, white pine, sassafras, mullein, and sweetgrass. These plants have long been valued for their medicinal properties and cultural significance. Participants will learn about their uses and get a chance to prepare them, learning how to utilize these plant medicines in a meaningful way.
We invite those who are looking to deepen their understanding of Indigenous healing practices, cultivate skills in plant medicine, and to connect with the natural world to this inspiring and educational experience.
This special Wellness Monday is presented as a part of our current exhibition Eternal Testament, curated by Jeremy Dennis and Meranda Roberts; please click here for more information on the exhibition.
