Join us for a session on Mahjong instruction, led by Indianapolis Riichi Mahjong on Japanese Mahjong!
In this two-hour session, learn about the history and mechanics of Riichi, or Japanese Mahjong, a style of the classic game that is rapidly becoming popular in anime and video games! While Riichi Mahjong has been around since the 1950s, this program will offer a fresh and brief hands-on instruction, followed by friendly matches. Led by the Indianapolis Riichi Mahjong group, you'll learn something new regardless of skill level.
This program is designed for adults and seniors. Registration is required.

About the branch
The first West Indianapolis Branch opened in 1897, following the annexation of West Indianapolis into the city of Indianapolis. A new building on West Morris Street, constructed with funds from a $120,000 grant by the Andrew Carnegie Foundation, opened in 1912 and served the community until 1986, when the current 5,000-square-foot branch began service on South Kappes Street.
