Alston Wilkes Society Charity Oyster Roast

Join us for an unforgettable Lowcountry afternoon at the Alston Wilkes Society’s 20th Annual Oyster Roast—where great food, beautiful waterfront views, and a powerful mission come together.

Enjoy all-you-can-eat oysters, delicious Lowcountry fare, refreshing drinks, and a lively atmosphere filled with music, laughter, and meaningful moments, all set against the scenic backdrop of Bowen’s Island.
