A gentle 90-minute introduction to American mahjong on the porch at Perry's Porch, coffee or matcha in hand. Instructor Gaia Banovich covers the tiles and suits, a simplified card and the Charleston, then guides a practice hand move by move. It runs on Thursday mornings alongside the porch's free open play, so beginners can see the next step waiting for them.
