The Nursing Story Slam brings together nurse storytellers from Penn Nursing and Penn Medicine to share their true, personal stories that explore the breadth, depth, and diversity of nursing.

This year’s Nursing Story Slam will take place on February 16, 2022 from 7pm – 8:30pm ET, and will be held in person at the Harold Prince Theater at the Annenberg Center for Performing Arts  (COVID permitting). If needed information on how to attend virtually will be provided prior to the event.  Learn more.

The theme for this year’s event is Creativity. Creativity is defined as the use of imagination, the ability to create meaningful ideas, and the capacity to transcend traditional rules, patterns, and relationships. Creativity is what nurses do every day. Nurses use their creativity at the bedside, in the classroom, the research lab, out in the community, and everywhere they work and practice. Recently, nurses have had to be more creative than ever and we want to hear how you’ve used your creative prowess to enhance the work you do.
