Ready to meet people without awkward small talk or endless swiping? Join us at The Ice Cream Bar for Speed Connecting! A low pressure event designed to spark real connections!
You can choose one, two or all three connection options:
- Love
- Friendship
- Networking
Love: An inclusive space to explore romantic connections in a fun, respectful setting. Whether you’re shy, bold, or somewhere in between, this is about chemistry and genuine conversation, no expectations required. When you arrive, you will get a name tag and can choose two heart stickers.
The first heart shows how you identify.
The second heart shows who you’re interested in.
Pink = women
Blue = men
Rainbow = non-binary / anyone
Friendship: Looking to expand your circle? This category is all about meeting like minded humans, future besties, activity partners, and people you just vibe with. Think laughter, shared interests, and low-stakes connection.
Networking: For creatives, entrepreneurs, artists, collaborators, and idea people of all kinds. This is networking without the stiff elevator pitches, just authentic conversations that can lead to collaborations, projects, gigs, or inspiring new connections.
When you arrive, you’ll receive a name tag and the category(s) you signed up for. Wear them so it’s easy to see who’s here for what. That way there’s no guessing or confusion.
With your ticket, you get one included drink or dessert.
You can choose between a draft beer, draft cider, or an 8oz cup of our soft serve ice cream with toppings. Additional drinks, desserts and food items can be purchased.
Once we get started, the rounds will be a few minutes each. There will be icebreaker cards for each category at the tables. No pressure, no awkwardness. If you’re not sure where to start, grab an icebreaker card and jump right in. There’s no wrong way to use them! After the event, you’ll have the chance to follow up with the connections that sparked something, whatever that “something” looks like to you.
Come curious, come open, leave connected!
