An hour of reading and creative writing-focused NBM activities with Creative Lead Damian Tarnopolsky.


Join us for an hour of writing activities, reflective exercises, and creative readings facilitated by NBM Lab Program Leads and guest faculty.

These sessions will offer a variety of welcoming writing exercises and informal opportunities to share work, as well as the chance to connect and collaborate with like-minded healthcare readers and writers.

You may find your professional outlook refreshed and reinvigorated, or be inspired to start on your next creative project — or simply enjoy a replenishing hour reconnecting with your creative, reflecting, self.
