Southeastern Wildlife Exposition invites all Tri-County students, grades 1st through 12th to participate in the Kids for Conservation arts competition. KFC has been a great source of pride for SEWE over twenty years and we are pleased to continue this excellent program in the Lowcountry.
Grades 1st – 5th are invited to submit drawings and paintings; Grades 6th – 8th are invited to submit original photography and poetry; Grades 9th – 12th are invited to submit custom designed birdhouses using recycled materials. All entries must be original work and wildlife inspired. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners will be chosen from each division. All entries will be on display during the Southeastern Wildlife Exposition at the Main Branch of the Charleston County Library.
SEWE is working diligently to promote Kids for Conservation in the Tri-County area and engage all students in the importance of conservation. It is our hope that students who invest in conservation efforts as youth will continue to protect our wildlife and environment as adults.
