From sweet treats handed from ladies in carriages, to today's wonderfully colorful souvenir trinkets of sparkling and blinking plastic, Mardi Gras throws have a long history in the celebration of Carnival in New Orleans, but they also bring unintended consequences. Learn from HNOC’s resident Carnival expert on the evolution of Mardi Gras throws through the years, the challenges beads bring and the efforts to address and reduce those issues.
