I think the best thing you can do is definitely to show up for events, dinner, etc. You will get to know people enough that you'll feel more comfortable inviting them to do things with you.
You might also find it helpful to throw a party or organize a night for everyone to get together and watch your favorite TV show (Grey's Anatomy is pretty popular here, though I don't really watch it..)
Also: why not tell your big how you feel? I am sure that she would be happy to introduce you to more people and come with you to events if you're feeling shy.
