We are committed to tackling the global climate crisis at the Clyfford Still Museum. We will strengthen and nurture a sustainability mindset within all departments and aspects of the Museum’s operations, including but not limited to exhibitions, programs, conservation, retail, and facilities. Sustainability has become and continues to be a central guide for our investments in our physical plant, operations, and staff at the Museum.
CSM pursues sustainability as part of our commitment to creating and promoting equity. We hold open a space for our community to respond to our environmental reality—in solidarity, in grief, and/or in resilient action. In order to engage in meaningful collaboration, we seek to build relationships of open reciprocity with communities historically marginalized in Denver and beyond. Through these relationships, we identify new ways to use our space to promote equity and sustainability.

Carbon-neutral Shipping on Shop Orders
Ecommerce deliveries have a carbon footprint. That’s why we support cutting-edge companies that remove carbon from the air on the Clyfford Still Museum online Shop. Here’s how it works: For every online order we receive, a formula is used to calculate the estimated shipping emissions. Based on those estimates, a portion of our revenue goes to carbon removal companies that have been vetted by scientists from Carbon Direct. Those companies use that money to remove however much carbon our shipments created. Any extra funds go toward the further development of carbon removal technologies.
