Weekly Wellness Saturday: Embodied Movement with Claire Halter (1pm)

Join us in Encinitas for even more ways to interact with contemporary art! Weekly Wellness Saturdays at ICA San Diego / North expands on our 2025-2026 exhibition season theme, On Healing. The exhibitions are part of a year-long exploration of the ways artists address the various socio-cultural wounds revealed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Similarly, the associated programs and events seek to explore how art can serve as a vital tool for mental, physical, emotional, and community wellbeing.

Weekly Wellness Saturdays will take place most Saturdays throughout the year during ICA San Diego’s open hours (Noon – 5pm), and includes:

• 1–2 PM: A rotating healing session hosted by a local facilitator*
• 2:15–3:15 PM: A complimentary tour of the current exhibition in its Lower and Upper Pavilions, the outdoor garden, and Sculpture Trail
• 12–5 PM: An all ages art-making activity related to this year’s On Healing season
• 12–5 PM: Complimentary admission to ICA / North’s exhibitions

Admission to Weekly Wellness Saturdays at ICA / North is free, and a donation will be suggested for healing activities, and made directly to the facilitator.

December 27:

• 1:00PM: Embodied Movement with Claire Halter — A guided journey of somatic, heart-led movement where music, intention, and creative expression invite you to attune to your body, release, and move with compassion. You’ll be offered gentle prompts alongside space for intuitive, freeform expression—moving from stillness to flow, and back to rest. Open to all—come as you are, and let your body lead the way.

ICA San Diego / North in Encinitas is open Saturdays & Sundays, Noon – 5pm.
