What we’re about
Do you prefer quiet cafes to crowded bars, art galleries to loud concerts, and peaceful nature walks to large social gatherings? Are you an introvert that would like to make some connections in the Asheville area? Are you an extrovert that likes quieter activities and would like to ‘adopt’ an introvert? I like to call myself an ambivert, and I am very familiar with the problem that making friends as an adult is hard when your favorite activities are largely solitary.
Welcome to the Asheville Introverts Meetup group!Whether you're looking to make new friends or simply enjoy some solo time in the company of others, this group should provide a relaxed and welcoming environment for introverts in Asheville.
I am planning introvert friendly activities like small gathering brunch or tea, nature walks (short and easy hikes or wandering in outdoor spaces) and visits to museums, coffee shops, art fairs, etc.

While there are not going to be age restrictions, I am personally 31 and intend for the activities to be mostly geared toward adults in the 25 to 40 age range.
Feel free to make suggestions for events and be sure to check descriptions as some of the events I have planned include destinations that will have an entry fee.
