We are very happy to announce that the Museum of Jewish Heritage is creating an exhibition exploring the traditions, history, and meanings of the game of mah jongg in Jewish-American culture. Crack, Bam, Dot! Mah Jongg in Jewish-American Life will be on view May 2 through December 2010.
If you are as big a fan of the game as we are, you are probably asking how you can help. Good news! The project team is seeking to interview men and women about their memories and experiences playing or observing the game. They are also looking for photos of people playing mah jongg. The Museum may use the materials in the exhibition or on the exhibition’s website. If you have photos to loan or memories to share, please contact mmartens@mjhnyc.org. In the meantime, we wish you many happy games in the new year.
