The officially licensed Mystic Krewe of Barkus is a nonprofit organization and Mardi Gras parade that center’s around man’s best friend. Since 1993, Barkus has sported themes such as “Wizard of Paws,” “Indiana Bones and the Raiders of the Lost Bark” and “Joan of Bark” while parading through the streets of the French Quarter. Gregory Curtis, director of Human Resources for the Windsor Court Hotel and president of the Krewe of Barkus, tells us about the furry krewe and the 2022 theme of “Barkingham Palace: Barkus Is Going for the Crown,” which will ride Feb. 20, 2022.
