seriously consider visiting Charleston, South Carolina, for the annual South- eastern Wildlife Exposition. Starting Feb. 18, 2011, more


than 30,000 people will travel to Charleston for a three-day event featuring more than 400 artists and exhibitors from around the globe. Based on its solid and well-earned reputation for excellence, SEWE annually hosts the world’s foremost experts in wildlife and nature art and also provides a healthy dose of conservation research and environ- mental education. “An important part of the South-


eastern Wildlife Exposition’s mission is to invest in and positively influ- ence wildlife and nature education through specialized programming,” SEWE Marketing Director Ashley Slane explained. “We assist in the conservation of wildlife and the environment by creating awareness and helping to raise contributions to designated programs.” Trough art, exhibits, lectures,


school programs and other support, the Southeastern Wildlife Exposition “increases awareness of the natural gifts which are increasingly taken for granted,” Slane added. “SEWE provides the public with affordable access to cultural and educational opportunities as they relate to wild- life and nature conservation and preservation.” SEWE takes seriously its ef-


forts to educate current and future generations. For example, the Kids for Conservation program is aimed at the youngsters who attend the three-day event, while SEWE also supports the thriving East Cooper Chapter of Ducks Unlimited, in part by promoting its annual oyster roast, held during SEWE each year.
