This highly interactive poster session will present sustainability projects from the Charles H.
Wright Museum and Michigan Science Center. Create your own road map for building advocacy and methods that change people’s behaviors, put Mother Nature first, and tie sustainability to your museum’s mission. Images of past sustainability projects and various prototyping methods will inspire participants to help their institution conserve energy, lower water consumption, reduce waste, and support green vendors.

Learning Objectives:

• Describe what a Green T-Shaped Museum is and how a museum can become one.
• Implement water conservation, energy saving, and recycling projects.
• List professional resources that help museum spaces and systems go green.
