==History==
In 1947, Blaine Kern, Sr. founded Blaine Kern Artists. Kern came from a family of float builders, but began creating floats after 1940, when a surgeon and krewe captain who had seen a mural by Kern hired him to create floats for the Krewe of Alla.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.kernstudios.com/about-blaine-kern-studios/history )〕 Kern's business expanded from there. Kern, who traveled to Europe to learn float building techniques, has gained an international reputation in float building, with floats beyond New Orleans for Las Vegas, NV; Mobile, AL; Galveston, TX; Montreal, Canada; and the Universal Studios Mardi Gras parade.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.universalorlando.com/Events/mardi-gras.aspx )〕
In 1984, Mardi Gras World was created as a tourist attraction to show visitors a behind-the-scenes look at float building.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.mardigrasworld.com/tours/about-us/ )〕
