FOUNDED IN 2001

The Krewe of Artemis was founded in 2001 with the vision of bringing the Mardi Gras spirit and tradition to the Baton Rouge community with a female twist.

THE KREWE STARTS TO TAKE SHAPE

After experiencing the formation and success of the Krewe of Orion through her husband Charles Harvey (President of Orion) Joanne’s goal was to bring that same spirit and tradition but with a decidedly female angle to Baton Rouge.

PARADE DEBUTS IN 2003

The Krewe made its parade debut in Baton Rouge in 2003 and has enjoyed tremendous support from the community.

GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY

Along with the Mardi Gras spirit comes service to community and the Krewe of Artemis is proud of its involvement with local charities. The Krewe has supported many community organizations American Cancer Society Baton Rouge Food Bank Juvenile Diabetes Association Race For the Cure and Dreams Come True to name a few.
