You are not ignorant. Krewes are private organizations like clubs. They are mostly active during Carnival (Mardi Gras) season with balls and/or parades but they may have other activities throughout the year. Membership in most Krewes is by invitation only and secret to outsiders. If they want you, they come to you.
Here is a good link to find out a little more.
