Miranda Massie is the founder and director of the Climate Museum, the first museum in the US dedicated to the climate crisis. The museum mobilizes the power of arts and cultural programming to accelerate the crucial shift toward climate dialogue and action, connecting people and advancing just solutions.
The museum shines a light and uplifts the voices of the ‘silent majority’ or 2/3rds of Americans (a clear bipartisan American supermajority) that supports bold climate policy. Yet due to current and past cultural conversations around climate change, many feel we are in the minority, that most Americans are indifferent to the climate crisis, which only yields a culture of silence and passivity on this pressing issue.

Educating visitors and participants on the climate crisis, the environmental overlap with social injustices, and highlighting artists and activist work across the country and globe are key to the climate museum mission.

In this conversation, we speak with Miranda on her journey from growing a career in law as a social justice lawyer, to transitioning into creating a non-profit museum, and the light bulb moment she had when coming up with the idea and so much more!
