Why Let's Mahj RVA

More than a pastime.

Mahjong may be what brings us together, but it isn't the reason people stay.

Around our tables you'll find encouragement, laughter, meaningful conversation, and friendships that extend well beyond game day.

Whether you're learning your first Charleston or you've been playing for years, you'll find more than a game — you'll find your people.

Why We Mahjong coffee table book
By Emilie Rabke with Lauren Wilson

Why We Mahjong

WHY WE MAHJONG is a coffee table book about the beauty and connection that happen when women gather around the table. Across six chapters — Beauty, Sisterhood, Joy, Verve, Family, and Exhale — it celebrates the laughter, friendship, and quiet moments of belonging that keep us coming back, told through stunning photography and heartfelt writing.

It's a tribute to what mahjong really gives us: a reason to slow down, show up for one another, and feel truly seen.

Profits go to the Rett Syndrome Research Trust — the world's leading organization working to cure Rett Syndrome.

Why Rett Syndrome? Because it's personal. Emilie's daughter, Anna Cate, lives with Rett Syndrome.
