Learn about the rich history of Mardi Gras featuring treasures such as crowns, costumes, scepters, favors, and more.
During this informative and fascinating tour, curators will discuss the particular environmental, handling, and housing factors needed to prevent damage and ensure the preservation of the objects they collect, safeguard, and interpret for present and future generations of citizens.
