Industry: Museum, Non-profit Company Milwaukee Public Museum

The Milwaukee Public Museum, founded in 1882, has long served as a cultural anchor for Milwaukee and the region. As the museum continues to evolve—introducing new exhibits while preserving beloved favorites—it seeks opportunities to strengthen its brand beyond its walls. One key touchpoint was the unbranded shopping bag used in the gift shop, a missed moment for extending the museum experience into the community.

what will you find?

To transform this everyday object into a branded engagement tool, we shifted the focus toward a more visitor-centric interpretation of the tagline, “What will you find?” We selected an archival illustration that fused two of the museum’s most iconic attractions—Dinosaurs and the Streets of Old Milwaukee—creating a visual link to what keeps guests returning. Printed in black ink on a higher-quality Kraft bag with a handle, the solution aligned with the museum’s natural-history ethos while elevating brand visibility and reinforcing the museum’s story long after visitors walked out the door.
