UCSF Music Therapy: Annual Holiday Video Archive

A tradition of healing and celebration

Every year, our holiday video reminds us that even in the midst of serious work, joy has a place here. Patients, families, and staff alike look forward to its release, sharing in the smiles, laughter, and warmth it brings. For many, it’s more than just a fun tradition – it’s a celebration of the community we’ve built together, where compassion, creativity, and hope are just as much a part of the healing process as medicine. This annual project has become a touchstone for our hospital culture, showing that a children’s hospital can be a place where music, laughter, and connection thrive.
