NOAHH extends a heartfelt “Happy Mardi Gras” to our partner families, volunteers, sponsors, and friends! Whether you are a life-long New Orleanian, a frequent visitor, a first time reveler, or simply watching from afar, we hope you find at least a moment to enjoy the ebullient spirit of Carnival.
Mardi Gras has been a part of the heritage and culture of New Orleans for centuries, becoming synonymous with the city as time went on. For several weeks (and sometimes months) of the year, the city is awash in parades, king cake, and other celebrations, and as NOAHH takes the next few days off to join the rest of the city in celebrating Carnival’s finale during Lundi Gras and Mardi Gras , we invite you all to join us in person or in spirit in marking the holiday.
