About

About Bams & Babes Mahjong

Meet Siobhan

Hi! I'm Siobhan, the founder of Bams & Babes Mahjong.

I fell in love with Mahjong because it's so much more than a game. It's an excuse to get together, laugh, learn something new and spend time around the table with good people.

I created Bams & Babes to bring that same feeling to women and groups throughout Chicagoland area. Whether you're brand new to Mahjong or looking to feel more confident at the table, my goal is to make learning fun, relaxed and never intimidating.

Come for the Mahjong. Stay for the laughs, the friendships and maybe a little friendly competition.

Learn. Laugh. Play. The Bams & Babes way!
