At the Table

A Mount Pleasant branch holds Wednesday afternoons for American mah jongg into November

Charleston County Public Library lists a weekly American mah jongg afternoon at its Wando Mount Pleasant branch, open to all skill levels.

The Charleston County Public Library calendar lists American Mah Jongg at the Wando Mount Pleasant branch on Wednesdays from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. Per the listing, the series began on 29 July 2026 and continues on the calendar through 11 November 2026.

The library's description is short and says all skill levels are welcome. The listing invites readers to join the branch for an afternoon of American Mah Jongg. It does not state a fee, and it does not say whether registration is required, so anyone planning to go should confirm both with the branch first.

Library calendars are one of the few places where a standing weekly game is published in public rather than passed along inside a private group. Players who have concluded there is nothing near them may simply not have looked at this particular kind of listing.
