The mission of the Southeastern Wildlife Exposition is to continue to positively impact the local and statewide economies through increased tourism; to showcase the finest wildlife art available in the world; to invest in and positively influence wildlife and nature education through specialized programming; and to assist in the conservation of wildlife and the environment by creating awareness and contributing financially to designated programs.

The Southeastern Wildlife Exposition plays a dual role in South Carolina. As an event, its estimated $63.8 million annual economic impact is unparalleled in the state, bringing life to the area at a traditionally slow time for the Lowcountry tourist industry. In addition, the Southeastern Wildlife Exposition provides the public with affordable access to cultural and educational opportunities as they relate to wildlife and nature conservation and preservation. Its programs underscore the need for educating ourselves and our children about the conservation and preservation of our wild and natural resources.

Through art, exhibits, lectures, school programs, and financial giving, the Southeastern Wildlife Exposition increases awareness of the natural gifts which are increasingly taken for granted. Focusing attention on local, regional and global issues - the Exposition presents a forum which brings these issues "home" and personalizes them, with the hope that one day attention to conservation and environmental issues will be as commonly taught as ABCs. By creating this new environmental morality, SEWE is working to make us aware of our natural treasures, and of the need to protect and preserve them for the future.
