About this Event

Join us for Mahjong Monday.

Location
Kimpton Marlowe Hotel

Arrive early or stay late to mingle and eat from the Mahjong Monday menu at Kimpton Marlowe Hotel. Sip on a mahjong-themed cocktail or order from the mahjong inspired food menu, as part of Kimpton Marlowe Hotel's Mahjong and Mingle series (food and drink purchased separately).

Come solo and meet other players or bring your group! This is not a lesson, and independence with mahjong play is required. Bring your own NMJL card. We will have a handful available to borrow. Parking is complimentary for Mahjong Monday participants.

Multiple Ways to Play:

Mahjong 102/103 (the most supported way to play)

This is for anyone who generally knows the tiles, the NMJL card, and but wants a structured lesson to help increase confidence with the charleston, choosing a hand, and game play rules. $50 (plus eventbrite fees) *Note: this is offered on select dates

Guided Play (a little less support)

This is for anyone who has taken lessons, knows the basics, and wants to play with others, but also get help from an instructor for rule reminders or strategy as needed. $35 (plus eventbrite fees)

Open Play (independent)

Already know the basics of mahjong and want to play independently? Join for open (independent) play. This is meant to be friendly, social, and community building. We will provide full mahjong set-ups. We will do our best to match by level, but must be willing to play with beginner players who know the basics and can play independently. $10 (plus eventbrite fees)
