Let’s have some fun with the data in our lives. Join us at the Data Story Slam, an informal social event where storytellers will share observations, surprises, predictions, aspirations, and other anecdotes about the ever-increasing presence of data in the world around us. Tell a short story about a futuristic vision, sing a data-related sendup of a favorite song, show off a personal discovery gleaned from app metrics, or recount a significant success or failure with your code in a supportive, inclusive space. Be a storyteller, or come to listen and encourage.

The Data Story Slam is open to all, and refreshments will be provided. This event is presented in conjunction with the 2026 Data Science Research Bazaar

Please RSVP to let us know that you are coming! You can sign up in the form, or at the event, to share a story.
