Whether you are looking to learn how to play, or you are a seasoned player, all levels are welcome and encouraged to join. Nicole will be on-hand to instruct beginners how to play, and there will also be tables for those who just want to jump in and play by their own house rules.
There will be various snacks and libations both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Attendees are also welcome to bring nostalgic snacks to share!
More about The Mahjong Project
Ruby member Nicole Wong has spent the past few years documenting her family's very specific and complicated house rules for playing mahjong. Along the way, she's collected stories and anecdotes about the game from friends, family members and people in her community, and talked to experts who have studied the game's history and enduring popularity. Her book Mahjong: House Rules from Across the Asian Diaspora is now available for pre-order, and will debut in April 2025!
