New Orleans Tapestries
Description: New Orleans is a Louisiana city on the Mississippi River, near the Gulf of Mexico. Nicknamed the “Big Easy,” it’s known for its round-the-clock nightlife, vibrant live-music scene and spicy, singular cuisine reflecting its history as a melting pot of French, African and American cultures. Embodying its festive spirit is Mardi Gras, the late-winter carnival famed for raucous costumed parades and street parties.
Description: The New Orleans Brass played from 1997 to 2002 in the East Coast Hockey League (ECHL) at the Municipal Auditorium and New Orleans Arena, facing rivals such as the Louisiana IceGators, Baton Rouge Kingfish, Jackson Bandits, Pensacola Ice Pilots, Arkansas RiverBlades, Mobile Mysticks, Tallahassee Tiger Sharks and more.
Description: While Mardi Gras started as one day of pre-Lenten celebration, Louisiana has taken Fat Tuesday to a whole new level, with a weeklong festival full of beads, floats, parades, drinks, & King Cakes. The streets of New Orleans become a magical carnival like nowhere else. Whether you're a lifelong Louisianian, a Bourbon Street reveler, or just visiting NOLA, a Mardi Gras gift is a great way to commemorate the festivities in the Deep South.
