It seems like yesterday two sisters saw in their dreams a vision of Mardi Gras, with the beauty and grace that could only be captured in an all women's carnival organization. Thus, was this krewe born. A symbol was chosen for the power, dignity and beauty of a women's krewe... The ageless splendor of Egypt's mighty ruler... Cleopatra! In 2013, after 39 years of parading on the Westbank, the Krewe of Cleopatra moved her procession to Uptown New Orleans along the traditional St. Charles route.
