Laissez les bon temps rouler! Happy Mardi Gras! When you think of Mardi Gras, what comes to mind? Beads? Parades? Well, while those are part of the celebrations, Mardi Gras is actually a historic and deeply rooted event that goes back centuries in the culture of New Orleans.
Mardi Gras is an annual opportunity for New Orleans artists, musicians, and community leaders to showcase their culture to the world. Network:On has partnered with several cultural ambassadors from the Crescent City to share how Mardi Gras is all about connections.
Making connections between music fans from all backgrounds as they gather in New Orleans’ most iconic music venue: Tipitina’s.
Sustaining connections between generations in celebrating and passing down the traditions of the Mardi Gras Indians.
Promoting connections between the arts community and the next generation of aspiring artists through community engagement and education.
America’s Excellent Internet makes these connections stronger and enables these ambassadors to share Mardi Gras with the world, letting people of all backgrounds experience Mardi Gras and join the celebration.
