Hi, I’m Mary — founder of Mahj ‘n Mingle
My mahjong journey began when my recently retired cousin introduced me to the game and gave me my first lesson. I was hooked immediately. What started as curiosity quickly became a passion, and before long I found myself searching for places to play and connect with other mahjong enthusiasts.
That search revealed something surprising: in many parts of Rhode Island, opportunities to play mahjong outside of senior centers can be hard to find. I knew there had to be others looking for the same thing – a welcoming community, beautiful venues, and a fun place to gather around the table.
That’s why I started Mahj ‘n Mingle.
As a former elementary school teacher and current school administrator, bringing people together and creating engaging experiences has always been at the heart of what I do. Today, New England Mahj Co. offers beginner Mahjong lessons for those just getting started, as well as welcoming social play events for players of all experience levels—from those who have recently completed a Mahjong 101 course to seasoned players looking for their next game. Whether you're learning your very first tile or searching for your next Mahj community, there's a seat at our table.
Our events are anything but ordinary. Instead of gathering in traditional settings, we bring mahjong to breweries, inns, wineries, restaurants, and other unique destinations throughout Connecticut and New England. Whether you're looking to sharpen your skills, meet new friends, or simply enjoy an afternoon of mahjong in a beautiful setting, you'll find a seat at our table.
We're building the mahjong community we couldn't seem to find—and we'd love for you to be part of it.
Choose a private lesson if you want a more personal, flexible learning experience. Private lessons are great for friend groups, family gatherings, or anyone who wants to learn at their own pace, ask questions freely, and feel more comfortable building confidence at the table.
Mahjong 102: Guided Play is a 2-hour session for players who have completed Mahjong 101 or understand the basics. The price is for a group of 4.
Play real games with an instructor at your table for coaching, strategy tips, rule clarification, and guidance as situations come up.
Game setups are provided. Bring a NMJL card if you have one. We also have extras available if needed. Hosted within 30 minutes of Providence, RI. We do travel further for an additional fee.
