A November Gathering of Gratitude & Friendship

As we enter the season of thankfulness, we’re reminded that some of life’s greatest blessings are found in the simplest moments—laughter shared around a table, friendships formed over a game, and the joy of belonging to something special.

This November, The Mahj-On Society invites you to join us at Coctel Lounge for a beautiful evening celebrating gratitude, friendship, and the incredible women who make our community what it is.

🤎 A Season to Be Thankful 🤎

We believe there is always something to be grateful for, and sometimes the greatest gifts in life aren’t things at all. They’re the people who encourage us, the friendships we never expected, and the moments that remind us how wonderful it is to be part of a community.

Together, we’ll enjoy an evening filled with mahjong, laughter, delicious food and drinks, and a few special touches to celebrate the season.

Whether you’re reconnecting with familiar faces or pulling up a chair with someone new, we hope you’ll leave with a full heart and another beautiful memory.

Mahjong, friendship, laughter & gratitude

Come ready to play, connect, and celebrate all the little things that make life beautiful.

Because at The Mahj-On Society, we’re not just playing a game. We’re creating friendships, building community, and making memories worth being thankful for.

Where strangers become friends. 🤎

Doors open for our group at 5:00 PM.
Arrive between 5:00–6:00 PM to order dinner, grab a cocktail, visit with friends, and get settled. We will eat at the same table we play at.
Mahjong begins promptly at 6:00 PM

Please do not arrive before 5:00 PM so Coctel Lounge has time to prepare for our group before we begin arriving.

As always, this is more than a night of Mahjong. Come meet someone new, share a table, enjoy a wonderful local venue, and experience the community that makes these evenings so special.

This event is expected to SELL OUT, so don’t wait to grab your seat! Tickets are non-refundable. Please include names in comments if registering for multiple spots.

Mahjong Guided Play

Guided play is a relaxed Mahjong night designed for players who already know the basics and want more practice in a supportive setting.  This is NOT a structured class or lesson - instead, you'll enjoy real gameplay while a table guide circulates to answer questions, clarify rules, and gently help to keep the game flowing smoothly.

Think of it as practice with a safety net.  You'll gain confidence, improve your strategy, and enjoy the social side of Mahjong while playing with other players in the community.

Guided Play Registration Fee $25
*Non-refundable

Your registration includes:

• Mahjong Guided Play Experience

• All Materials Needed to Play

Come ready to play, learn through experience, and enjoy a fun afternoon of tiles, conversation, and community.
