This is not a library sponsored event.

Purpose of Meeting

The ancient game of mahjong, which first captured America’s attention in the 1920s, is making a comeback—and the Friends of the Joplin Public Library are hosting it at the Library on the second and fourth Mondays in October and November. 

Beginners will receive instruction starting at 1:30 pm and experienced players can play from 2 to 4 pm.  If you're an experienced player and want to help the beginners you are invited to come at 1:30 pm. And if you have a Mahjong set please bring it along. 

Whether you are a seasoned player or brand new to the game, pull up a chair, shuffle the tiles, and join us—there’s always room at the mahjong table.

No reservations for this event.  All are welcome.
