NEW THIS FALL: A Weekend of Mahjong®

Pack your favorite set and your best shopping shoes; this fall's market brings a memorable weekend of Mahjong, charming vintage finds, and relaxed time together. It's the perfect event for anyone who loves friendly games, beautiful old things, and a little time to browse, laugh, and unwind.

Leading the fun is fabulous hype girl, Machelle, whose warmth and enthusiasm will make guests feel right at home, whether they're a seasoned game master or a curious newcomer. Guests unsure of the rules can lean on Machelle's guidance every step of the way, and those without their own set are covered: Machelle has plenty to share.

Space is limited, so guests are encouraged to secure their spot early. Paid entry into Vintage Market Days® is required for all Mahjong sessions.
