skip the small talk events across new england

If you’re looking for something different to do in August, Skip the Small Talk is coming to bars, breweries, and bookstores across New England!

It’s a guided conversation event—think speed-friending vibes, but calmer and more intentional. In Boston, we even offer some speed-dating events that apply our science-backed strategy to forming connections to romance :)

You rotate through short conversations with prompts that skip past surface-level small talk. It’s structured enough to make it easy, but relaxed enough to feel natural.

Most people come alone. The crowd tends to be thoughtful, open, and just… normal humans who want more community.

skip the small talk 6/25 at the raven book lounge

Okay, real question—how many of us keep saying “I should meet more people” and then just… don’t?

We’re hosting Skip the Small Talk night at Raven Book Lounge!

You’ll rotate through a series of short conversations using prompts that make it way less awkward than standard networking energy.

It’s low pressure. No weird icebreakers. No forced vulnerability. Just good questions and good people.

Come solo. Bring a friend. Either works.

Happy to share more details if helpful!
