Since 1994, the Krewe of Orpheus has mesmerized the crowds who jam the streets of New Orleans awaiting its arrival. From its founding in 1993, Orpheus has consistently stunned the revelers on Lundi Gras, the night before Mardi Gras, and has exploded as the largest new Krewe in the past 30 years. Since that first ride, Orpheus has been the most eagerly anticipated Mardi Gras parade of the season.  From 1994 through 2005, artists created beautiful works of art to use as the yearly themed poster and Orpheuscapade ball invitations.  These posters and invitations are perfect for framing and make great gifts.
