Recently Smithsonian.com featured pictures from the Omega Psi Phi Mardi Gras Dance in Washington D.C., photographed by the late Addison Scurlock, who chronicled social happenings in the African American community. 80+ years later, Alpha Omega Chapter's Mardi Gras Dance is still a major "happening" in D.C. (On 8 Feb 2013, it was held at the Washington D.C. Hilton.)
