In New Orleans, Fat Tuesday (or Mardi Gras in French) is a day of absolution during which everyone enjoys the luxuries of life. Schools and workplaces are closed. The community celebrates on the streets, sometimes in costume, sometimes by parading.

Annually, Common Press director Jessica Peterson celebrates her adopted New Orleans roots in Philly by inviting everyone and anyone to come pull a commemorative Mardi Gras print.

Stop by any time between 9 to 11 a.m. to print a special print with a quote from New Orleans' own Tarriona Ball. Bring costumes and headdresses if so inclined (IYKYK).
