When maps come up short and the path ahead is uncertain, how do we find our way? In her new book Climate Wayfinding: Healing Ourselves and the Planet We Call Home, best-selling, award-winning author Dr. Katharine K. Wilkinson (co-editor of All We Can Save) offers a compassionate and empowering guide for navigating through ache to action, doubt to possibility. Whether we’re steeped in climate or newly curious, we can look inward with care, outward with curiosity, and forward with courage to shape our unique contributions.

The Climate Museum and The All We Can Save Project presented a dynamic book experience, immersing ourselves in the wisdom of Climate Wayfinding and the beauty of poetry, art, and song. Amid kindred community, we remember that each of us is a node of possibility for healing the climate crisis—whoever we are and whatever we’ve got to give.

The program included a conversation between Dr. Wilkinson and Climate Museum director Miranda Massie, as well as a reading by special guest and poet Tamiko Beyer.

About The All We Can Save Project
The All We Can Save Project is a nonprofit that nurtures people as the heart of climate healing. Rooted in its founding anthology, All We Can Save, the Project’s programs and resources serve thousands of climate doers, thinkers, and feelers.

About the Climate Museum
The Climate Museum, the first museum in the US dedicated to climate change, mobilizes the power of arts and cultural programming to invite visitors into climate engagement and agency. The Museum’s exhibitions and programs help move people from feeling despair and isolation about this existential threat to feeling informed, connected, and empowered to act. The Museum will open the doors to its permanent home on Manhattan’s West Side in 2031.

This event was made possible by support from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.

The Climate Museum was delighted to join The Broadway Green Alliance and Times Square Alliance for their 5th Annual Broadway Celebrates Earth Day Concert. 

The event will took place Saturday, April 25 from 11am-3pm in Time Square’s Duffy Square in front of the iconic red steps. The free public performance and festival offered performances by both Broadway talent and over 150 singers from local schools and community groups.

The Climate Museum was proud to present climate arts and action opportunities in the surrounding pedestrian plaza. Artist David Opdyke installed his major work of climate art, Someday, all this, which was exhibited for the first time at a Climate Museum show in Soho. Visitors watched—and helped—him place the 400 postcards that make up this epic postcard mural. The Museum also provided opportunities for taking climate action onsite and for committing to action alongside a community of others. Additional activities in the pedestrian plaza were presented by Headcount, Materials for the Arts, and the Wildlife Conservation Society.

The Climate Museum’s participation in this event was made possible by support from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs.

The Climate Museum presented a high-energy night where entertainment meets climate solutions and the audience was part of the action on Earth Day eve.

During the evening, Pattie Gonia hosted a live Climate Game Show Night featuring special guest contestants Emily Atkin, Kristy Drutman, Charlene Kaye, and Jacob Simon competing in fast-paced challenges that blended climate change, pop culture, and real-world solutions. It was part performance, part education, part community mixer, all pointed toward action.

Whether climate-curious or deeply engaged in sustainability work, all were welcome to join for the fun and stay for the connection. Attendees met fellow attendees, organizers, artists, and solution-builders, leaving with new connections, clear action steps, and renewed momentum.

Explore how storytelling, culinary traditions, and crafts are evolving and how museums can transform from mere preservation to active storytelling and community engagement—taking heritage as a living force that fosters sustainability and helps shape identity. This panel, co-hosted by the Museum of Food and Drink and the New York Climate Exchange, will bring together artists, chefs, scholars, and cultural organizers, including a creative team member at the Climate Museum.

As climate change reshapes our cities, communities, and health, New York stands at a crossroads—an international city with a responsibility to lead and an opportunity to act.  

The evening will open with music by Madame Gandhi, an electronic music producer, artist, and activist recognized as a TED Fellow, Forbes 30 Under 30, and BBC 100 Women honoree. In her lecture demonstration, she will share her experience recording sounds from nature, integrating them into her music, and including nature in royalties.

A series of Lightning Lectures will highlight on-the-ground work by local organizations across the boroughs, from rooftop farming and urban forestry to public cooling infrastructure and community organizing. 

A keynote presentation by Rohit T. Aggarwala, Commissioner of the New York City Department of Environmental Protection and the City’s Chief Climate Officer, will highlight how New York City is advancing its climate and sustainability goals, offering insight into how local governments are preparing for the growing challenges of climate change. 

This panel, part of Climate Mic Drop, will explore how imagination, physical space, and storytelling can converge to create worlds where both people and the planet thrive. The session will include Collin Cavote, Biome; Elizabeth Thompson, Visions2030; and Miranda Massie, The Climate Museum; moderated by Susan McPherson, McPherson Strategies.

​Climate Mic Drop is a day-long, participatory summit designed to reshape how we tell climate stories— moving from top-down messaging to people-powered narratives that center justice and gender equity and drive real action. Bringing together leaders from philanthropy, climate finance, grassroots activism, conservation, media, and Indigenous communities, the event will blend panels, creative labs, and hands-on workshops to generate tangible narrative tools, campaign concepts, and cross-sector alliances.

In an era of declining public trust, museums remain among the most trusted institutions. How are museums using their expertise to lead cutting-edge climate storytelling? 

The Yale Program on Climate Change Communication (YPCCC) conducts research to help museums of all types—natural history, art, science, and history museums—engage audiences around climate change. Join the YPCCC for a panel discussion with museum experts and exhibition designers about how museums are blending data with storytelling, identifying new ways to inform and inspire visitors to act on climate change, and how successful strategies from museums can be applied more broadly across the climate movement.  

The panel will include leaders from the Climate Museum, the Natural History Museum of Utah, The Wild Center, the Association of Science and Technology Centers, the American Museum of Natural History, and experience designers Sitara Systems, whose projects included climate change interactive exhibits for the Yale Peabody Museum. 

The Climate Museum is proud to endorse Sun Day, a global day of action celebrating the remarkable rise of clean energy. Hundreds of events are being held, bringing people together to showcase the power of the sun and wind.

In NYC, there will be a festival with information booths and tables, opportunities to take action, kids' activities, a family music performance by Esther Crow, and a panel discussion moderated by WNYC host Kai Wright featuring Third Act’s Bill McKibben, NYC Comptroller Brad Lander, and others.
