Mystick Krewe of Louisianians 2024
"Louisiana: The Most Interesting State in America"
“Washington Mardi Gras is an annual celebration entering its 75th year. The origin of the festivities dates back to the 1940’s, when Louisiana business leaders sought to bring a taste of Louisiana Mardi Gras to its homesick Louisiana Congressional delegation and staffers during the Carnival season, which leads up to Mardi Gras day. The multi-day event and its signature costume ball and parade (featuring a king, queen and royal court of princesses and Louisiana festival queens) has been operating for 68 of those years under the direction of “The Mystick Krewe of Louisianans” (a 500-member krewe consisting of men and women from Louisiana and Washington, DC). The Mystick Krewe is managed by The Washington Mardi Gras Corporation and its fivemember board, commonly referred to as its Senior Lieutenants. For more information on the krewe and its history, please see the krewe website…” ~peoplewhothink.com
