When you hear the words “New Orleans Mardi Gras” you might think of “masking”, “drunken revelry”, and “debauchery”. You would not be wrong! However, if you suspect that there may be something more to a city-wide celebration so popular with visitors that the number of people in the city doubles in size, and so attractive to the vast majority of locals - including families with children - that year after year they invest their time, money and energy to participate in its colorful traditions, you would also be correct. Congregation Emeth is hosting a program at 7 p.m. on the evening of March 4th that will offer a peek into the multitude of big messy parades, balls, parties, and festivities that make up what New Orleanians refer to as “the Carnival Season.” Join us then to find out more about Mardi Gras’ historical and religious underpinnings, its multiple forms of celebration, and even its dirty little secrets. New Orleans’ style refreshments to follow. About our Presenter: In 1979, Julie Schwartz was lured down to New Orleans by a man and a job. After a hurricane almost chased her away, she developed an insatiable appetite to learn about the history and culture of the town they call “The Big Easy.” In 2008, she made it official and became a licensed tour guide. From that point on, she harangued whoever would listen with a multitude of facts. Yet, people continue to come. You did! We hope you enjoy! -
