Getting Started in Birmingham

Birmingham's listings center on two community sites. The Levite Jewish Community Center offers free open play and a multi-part Mahjong 101 series, and O'Neal Library in Mountain Brook hosts a recurring meetup that uses the National Mah Jongg League card, with a beginner lesson on the first Monday. Both are a good fit for newcomers. Check the event pages for the current location and dates before you go.
