The thing about me being me in public is that I don't mostly advertise a lot of it. (Because I have the thing about 'librarian needs to be approachable by wide number of people').
I wear meaningful religious jewelry to me, but it's not anything that's recognisable to other people. I do pins on my bag if I'm carrying the shoulder bag (but not on the backpack, because I'm more likely to scrape them off accidentally), but that only works if I'm carrying the bag. And so on.
The thing that works best for me has tended to be 'gathering of 5-20ish people, ideally with some sort of workshop like thing or activity that gives a chance to talk without obligating me to talking to anyone in particular.' but it took me a long time to figure that out. (And there are times it's still really complicated to actually *do*.)
