Ben’s family. Ben and  his wife Judy founded SkyDay after hearing Yo-Yo Ma’s call for artists to serve community - and especially our young people - by engaging them on the issues that matter the most. SkyDay is their response.

Ben and Judy founded SkyDay after hearing Yo-Yo Ma call artists to serve community by using whatever talents they have to engage folk on the issues that matter the most.

 
If you want to change the world for the better you must first change minds for the better and for that to happen, you must inspire folk to learn more and care more.
— SkyDay Founder, Ben Whitehouse
 

We are a volunteer partnership of artists and scientists working to inspire a greater understanding of how our climate functions, what its vulnerabilities are and why we should care.

Our messaging is positive. Why? Because being positive is good leadership. Furthermore, we see the inevitable transition from fossil fuel economies to sustainable ones as the most exciting opportunity of our lives - opportunities for new leadership, entrepreneurship and innovation.

We are inclusive and staunchly nonpartisan. We are not aligned with any political organization or group. We work to bring everyone together.

Join us. Help us ignite the most important social movement of our time!
