An Evening with the Stars 2016

Once again toasting the best and brightest

The fifth-annual An Evening With the Stars, on September 24, flipped the script just a little.

The event at the Center Club in Baltimore honored outstanding nurses including preceptors, faculty, and students from across Johns Hopkins and the difference their innovation, knowledge, and excellent care makes on patients, families, and communities. It also included the Johns Hopkins Alumni Association Heritage Award, which honors friends and alumni who have contributed extended outstanding service, and the first-ever Staff Appreciation Award. As a bonus, attendees got a sneak peek at The New Script of Nursing, a video to be shared with anyone involved or interested in the profession.

An Evening With the Stars raised $21,000 to benefit The Mobley Fund, established to support faculty and students conducting research in domestic violence prevention. To show support for Officer Eugene Mobley, School of Nursing students created hundreds of colorful origami cranes that decorated the stage and were shared with guests.

An Evening With the Stars celebrates the best nurses and their biggest supporters.
