About this Event

(Please note: This is a two-session workshop — Tuesday, Sept. 9, and Wednesday, Sept. 10, 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. both evenings.)

Crack! Bam! Dot! Come learn the ancient Chinese game of Mah Jongg (American style). This two-evening workshop introduces beginners to the basic rules and simple strategies necessary to master the game.

This is a two-part class: During the first night (Tuesday, Sept. 9), we will learn the basics of identifying tiles, identifying hands on the 2025 card, and learning the basic rules. When we meet again the following evening, we will review the information from night one and practice playing the game with other beginners. By the end of the class you should feel comfortable joining a low-stakes game.

Enrollment will include a 2025 National Mah Jongg league card (a $15 value that you'll use any time you play). And in true Mah Jongg tradition, snacks will be served!

This workshop is open to crafters ages 18 and older.
