Welcome to SPEED FRIENDING at Dovetail Cafe / Duluth Folk School! Everyone will meet everyone one-on-one. And by the time we finish, we'll all have more more acquaintances than we did before! Hurray!This is an event for everyone. We've held dozens of these events, and so we can say: we want you here!
Whether you'll consider yourself an introvert or extrovert, young or old, from near or far (or somewhere in-between all those) -- you'll likely have a good time at these friendly and facilitated events.

Q. What is Speed Friending?
A. Speed Friending is like Speed Dating, only better! We talk to someone one-on-one for a few minutes. When the host yells "SWITCH!", we rotate chairs and talk to someone else one-on-one. We do this until everyone has met everyone!
Q. Is the goal to make friends?
A. Maybe! But the focus isn't on finding new "best friends" -- it's about casually meeting a wide variety of new people. We're foremost helping neighbors meet neighbors!
There's no pressure to "make friends," and no follow-up system. It's really a conversation generator. People who come often do find friends, though.
Q. Meeting lots of people quickly sounds scary. Is it scary?
A. Nope! If you've never been before, you might have some anxiety beforehand. That's normal! But the people who come -- including introverts -- find this to be an accessible, rewarding, and interesting way of connecting with others. You probably will too!
Q. How much does it cost?
A. It's free!
We will do our best to make this accessible for you. If you have mobility, allergen, or other concerns please contact us!
