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.

This workshop is part of our Adult Summer Reading Program!

Made possible by The Indianapolis Foundation Library Fund through a grant to The Indianapolis Public Library Foundation.

About the branch

The Spades Park Branch was built with funds from a $120,000 grant by the Andrew Carnegie Foundation and opened in 1912, six months after the opening of the city’s other remaining Carnegie Library, the East Washington Branch. The 7,500-square-foot branch underwent a $610,000 renovation in 1987 and celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2012.
