Come sing and play instruments with Mr. Matt.

For children ages 10 - 35 months, with a caregiver.

In Honor of Asian/Pacific American Heritage Month: The Joy Luck Club (1993) Wayne Wang’s adaptation of Amy Tan's 1989 bestselling novel: in San Francisco, a group of aging Chinese women (“The Joy Luck Club”) meet regularly to trade familial stories while playing Mahjong. In a series of sixteen vignettes that spans generations and continents, the film explores cultural conflict and the often-turbulent relationships between four first-generation Chinese-American women and their respective mothers born in feudal China. Rated R: 2 hours 19 minutes.

Come and meet new friends and join in on a game that is played all over the world.  Mahjong enthusiasts of all skill levels are invited to play every Tuesday from 10am to 1pm. The sessions are open-ended and participants can play as many or as few games as they wish.  Players with mahjong sets are encouraged to bring them, as the Library has only a limited number to loan. This program is free, ongoing and open to players from all communities.
