A Night of Festive Fun and Community at the Annual Department Holiday Celebration

On December 13th, the University Utah Department of Anesthesiology gathered for an evening of cheer and celebration at This is the Place Heritage Park. Beautifully decorated for the season, the venue set the stage for a night  full of joy, laughter, dancing, and holiday spirit. 

The celebration featured a catered dinner and music from a DJ that brought residents, faculty, and staff together on the dance floor–creating a warm and welcoming space to enjoy each others company

This wonderful event was made possible by Annalyse Erickson, whose creativity and attention to detail helped bring the department together to celebrate the past year’s successes and look ahead at the year to come.

Thank you to This is the Place Heritage Park for hosting us in their scenic space, and to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening one to remember!
