Thank you for a spooktacular Mardi Gras 2025!
We've just posted pics from Cryptique's 2025 Mardi Gras shamble in our gallery! This year was our biggest yet and with some of the most spectacular costumes we've ever seen! Truly breathtaking work.
Interested in marching with us next year? We'd love to have you! All you gotta do is sign up on our mailing list and you'll receive news about krewe activities and events throughout the year; not just Mardi Gras, but meetups, movie nights, paper mache workshops, etc. All are welcome!
Remember, you don't gotta be an artist to join Cryptique, and you don't gotta make a paper mache mask; a lot of us just like doing so. Check out our krewe bylaws to see our costume guidelines; they are very laid-back.
