About us

Tiles & Tea — A mahjong circle for women of color — beginners welcome.

I started Tiles & Tea because I'm learning to play mahjong, but I hadn't found a table that felt like mine. Open plays can be intimidating if you're new, and I wanted something different: a small, warm group where women of color can learn, play, and just be — no pressure, no gatekeeping.

What to expect

A relaxed, low-pressure table — this is a social space first, competitive mahjong second (or third)
Genuinely beginner-friendly — you're exactly who this is for
A small group by design. We're starting intentionally and growing slowly, aiming for a solid, familiar table of regulars over time. This is strictly social play, not a league, so we'll go as slow as needed — you just need to know the rules of the game. Don't know the rules? Take a few lessons first — it's fun.

Right now, we're forming. No fixed schedule yet — I'm gauging interest before locking in a first date and location. Join the group or send a message if you're curious, even if you're not sure you can commit yet.

Come as you are. Tea's optional. Spilling it is not.

P.S. Its also important to note the surrounding areas are Memphis - Southhaven and Olive Branch
