201 E. Ontario Street Chicago, IL 60611

Tuesday-Friday: 11:00 AM-6:00 PM
Saturday: 11:00 AM-3:00 PM

Chicago-based SpaceShift Collective convenes in The Arts Club’s garden and drawing room for a weekend activation in response to Temitayo Ogunbiyi’s exhibition, currently on view, which features custom plant-inspired flavors from local ice cream makers.

In a similar spirit, SpaceShift will explore the restorative properties of roots, fronds, oils, and essences derived from powerful plants such as yarrow, comfrey, turmeric, and mugwort to create concoctions for healing and hydration. Visitors will leave with their own handmade remedies, ready for the season ahead.

Bring a simple family recipe or wellness tradition to share at this free public event—and have some ice cream!
