Speed Friending Shabbat: Unplugged

Please arrive promptly at 7:00 pm as our programming begins shortly thereafter, and we want everyone present.

We will start the evening with appetizers, drinks, and schmoozing, and then get into Speed Friending! There is no experience necessary - I’m new to this too! We only ask that you bring your open, optimistic, and friendly self to this great evening. You will engage in short (~5 minute) conversations with one or two other people and will have a new theme/prompt for each session. Then, after a few structured rounds of meeting amazing new folks, we will sit down together to enjoy a delicious Shabbat meal.

🚗 Dear Eleanor is in Wynwood, and there is parking! You are able to park for free at 120 NE 27th St. and we are right across the street at 148 NE 28th St. We strongly recommend carpooling or ridesharing (Uber/Lyft), especially if you will be consuming alcohol.

This event is part of the national Permission to Unplug series. “Unplugging” can look like so many things - taking a deep breath in nature, finding inspiration in art, diving into a deep conversation with a good friend - and has countless proven benefits on peoples’ health and wellbeing. We invite you to try leaning into “unplugging” for this night together, in whatever way that means to you, and explore how you might embrace this intentionality in your life.
