County Owned
The Depot is owned by St. Louis County, and appreciates the strong relationship we have built over the years in becoming known as the St. Louis County Heritage & Arts Center.
In addition, the Depot and its member organizations are appreciative of the ongoing support of the Depot Foundation which through its grant funding program helps to preserve and present the arts, history, and culture of St. Louis County.
The Depot is calling on organizations that are interested in engaging office, exhibit, or performance space in our 131-year-old landmark building.
