Metropolis St. Louis Tour Guide Informational Meeting
Each building in downtown St. Louis has a story behind it, and our goal is to share that story to the locals and out of towners who attend our Downtown Architecture Walking Tours. This year we are looking for a few more tour guides to become part of our group. No experience is necessary, just a willingness to learn, speak in front of groups, and show up on your designated Saturday.
