Klimaatmuseum
The Climate Museum is a pop-up museum of art and science about today's biggest challenge: the climate crisis.
In this pop-up at the Tolhuistuin, you can discover thought-provoking artworks and interactive installations that bring UvA's latest climate research to life. Are you looking for more insight, a new perspective or ways to contribute to the solution? Then you're in the right place at the Climate Museum. Together we are turning the tide.
The climate crisis: some are enormously worried and feel powerless, others are so angry they block the highway, and others see hope in the smallest things. Meanwhile, the earth is getting warmer and the consequences are becoming more visible. Yet we are not moving enough. Fortunately, we still have art and science!
Our mission: make the climate crisis more understandable and palpable, and offer surprising and inspiring perspectives, so that we move more and faster for a sustainable world.
