Exploring and enjoying the culture of St. Louis has never been safer, easier, or more affordable!

Join the Office of Student Involvement - Community and Belonging as we journey to the cultural hotspots our city. Enjoy live dance and music at the Japanese Festival at the Botanical Gardens, ice-skate in the Central West End, climb the Gateway Arch, and more! Bring your Metro Pass or buy a one-day Adventure Pass the day-of and get ready for a memorable ride with this new UMSL tradition.
