Currently whimsying around at National Children’s Museum.  

























आकांक्षा उपाध्याय Akanshya Upadhyay is a multidisciplinary graphic designer (born and raised in Kathmandu, Nepal) based in Washington, DC.































I designed assets for National Children’s Museum’s Winter Gift Membership campaign, which spanned across  organic social media, digital advertisements and newsletter placements, and physical  printouts.  One of my favorite projects!

I led the refresh of the brand’s icon library, designing updated icons and adding new ones to create a more cohesive look across signage, wayfinding, and digital platforms.

ReMember Your Play!

 National Children’s Museum annually hosts a week-long series of events and programs honoring their loyal members and celebrating their continued support. For the 2025 Member Appreciation Week, I was tasked with designing 
a commemorative program booklet highlighting past exhibits and member special events. The concept draws inspiration from a memory wall — a visual metaphor that honors cherished memories while inviting members to look ahead to the Museum’s future.
