Non-profits, Cultural Organizations, Museums | Visual Identities, Art, Illustration, Graphic Design
The National Youth Summit is hosted annually by the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. Each year, the summit centers around a new topic. The museum was looking for a visual identity for the event that coordinated with the annual theme and museum’s primary identity, yet spoke to the summit’s specific audience of high school students and educators.

Approach
Studio Aorta has worked with the NYS team for both the 2020 and 2021 summits. For both years, we developed the visual identity based on the theme for the summit and worked to create a creative approach that incorporated dynamic illustrations and elements that provided a fresh take on the museum’s primary visual identity.
