Whether you’re a beginner-or been playing for years-you’re in the right place if you’re looking for a Mahjong community.

Katie Duffy, Founder of KC Mahjong Club

Katie started playing Mahjong about five years ago. She was immediately hooked! After playing with a group of friends for a few years, she wanted to "spread the love" of the game with others and be part of a community.

She discovered that there was no dedicated place in KC where you could show up, play and meet some old and new friends and play some Mahjong. After doing some research, she learned she was not alone. Katie learned that other cities had Mahjong clubs to learn and play and that the time was right for Kansas City to have it’s own dedicated group.

So, in September of 2024, KC Mahjong Club was born!

Katie is a certified teacher of American Mahjong through Oh My Mahjong! and she uses their teaching program and materials for her classes.
