Mahjong or mah-jongg is a tile-based game that was developed in the 19th century in China and has spread throughout the world since the early 20th century. It is played by four players. The game and its regional variants are widely played throughout East and Southeast Asia and have also become popular in Western countries. Similar to rummy, mahjong is played by creating runs or groups of tiles to match a hand. You do not need to have any familiarity with the game to join this lesson. 

A big thank you to the Roe family for hosting this very fun auction item.
