According to the organizers, SEWE is an event where artists, conservationists, craftsmen and more can come together to celebrate nature, wildlife and the great outdoors.

The event was open on Thursday with VIP guests and special events taking place. Starting Friday, the event is open for everyone. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday the event will run from 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.

SEWE is located in downtown Charleston and the exhibits and attractions are spread throughout five venues across the peninsula.

Here are just some of the things you can enjoy this weekend:
