COMMUNITY IMPACT
Rooted in St. Louis, 21c amplifies local voices, fosters creativity, and builds a more connected community through art and hospitality.

OUR MISSION
21c Museum Hotel St. Louis’ Community Impact program aims to foster innovation and collaboration to spark change and drive thought-provoking conversations. With a commitment to utilizing St. Louis’s infrastructure and vibrant community to create a safe and inclusive environment, they center art, culture, and community engagement. 21c St. Louis is dedicated to partnering with locally-owned businesses to provide guests with unique and authentic experiences while supporting the growth and development of St. Louis.

May Community Partner
St. Louis Area Diaper Bank strives to make a health, social and economic impact by not only providing diapers and period supplies but by fostering connections to resources. Providing families in need with free diapers and period supplies influences a range of positive outcomes, such as positive changes in parental mood, reducing the risk of childhood abuse, improved child health and happiness and increased opportunities for childcare, work stability, and school attendance.
Local Small Business Partnerships
At 21c St. Louis, we are proud to elevate the vibrant local community of makers and entrepreneurs, support inclusive economic growth and share the stories of small businesses shaping the future of St. Louis.
We serve locally roasted coffee from beloved Black-owned roastery Northwest Coffee and premium, ethically-sourced teas from Big Heart Tea Co., known for their botanical blends and feel-good flavors. Amenities include Butter Love Skin, a St. Louis-based, woman-owned skincare line offering handcrafted body butters, scrubs, and oils made with natural ingredients.
Our WePower x 21c Curated Hotel Collection in our hotel gift shop showcases locally-made products from Black and Latinx-owned businesses across the region—thoughtfully selected to reflect the creativity and talent of our community.
