Curious Parties

Over at Shy & Curious, we get how it’s not the easiest thing to show up in a room of strangers as your best and brightest self. So we’re all for dropping the masks, saying it as it is and exploring conversations around taboos and the stories we don’t share with our friends. We welcome you to our monthly Curious Parties, a chance to admit what you’ve always been curious about, unlearn shame and meet fellow shy and not-so-shy folks!

What to expect:

When was the last time you received a compliment? What’s a compliment you wished someone would say to you? What’s a compliment that quite honestly, you’re tired of hearing? Inspired by the stories shared from our past workshops and realizing that most men (and women) will still remember rare compliments from years ago, we welcome you to a night of being seen for who you are and the effort you put in!

While there’s no guarantee that you’ll have your very own meet-cute, what we promise instead is an evening where shame goes out the window and we’ll proudly claim what we’re good at and what we want to be remembered for. And who knows, maybe you’ll learn a new aspect of yourself you didn’t even know since the first step in meeting new people is getting out of our own way!

And that’s where we come in, meet new people without the pretense, enjoy honest conversations at your own pace. Joined by Etty Astika, flirting coach and former matchmaker, we’ll be there with conversation starters and introductions if you’re shy. Just imagine attending a house party with your well-meaning kaypoh makciks who’ll only hype you up!

So grab a free drink with us and enjoy your Saturday with trading laughs, stories and hopefully making a new friend or two.

What makes this unique:

This mixer is geared for singles and couples alike and anyone who’s looking to chill and connect with folks who are ready to be themselves.. We aim to create a safe space so we reserve the right to remove any attendees who the organizer/other attendees deem demonstrating unsafe behaviour.

Details:

The event will take place at Crane x Temple Cellars, from 7:30pm - 9:30pm. Tickets are priced at $45 and comes with 1 drink!
