About STL Bucket List
STL Bucket List is the go-to platform for discovering the best of St. Louis — from hidden gems and foodie hotspots to local legends and up-and-coming creatives. What started as an Instagram account has grown into a full-scale independent media company with a mission to tell the authentic stories of our city.
We’re building something big — the largest independent media brand in St. Louis — and we want someone who lives, breathes, and loves this city to help us do it.
