FUN ALERT!
Tuesday Night Mah Jongg club at Chabad Intown! It’s not your Bubbie’s mahjong, or is it? Mah Jongg has been a staple of Jewish American culture since the founding of the National Mah Jongg League. The Jewish women entrepreneurs who started the league in 1937 intended to bring MahJongg to a wide audience and standardize the game. In the 1950s this game spread in Jewish communities largely amongst the women as a way to connect with one another. We’re doing the same in 2024. Mahjong is having quite the resurgence and we’d love to get together to play this game of skill and luck, have snacks and drinks, and kibbitz with old and new friends.
$118 for two, 2-hour sessions on June 18th and June 25th – taught by Two Sparrows MahJongg and hosted by Chabad Intown.
