Get involved with Southern Missouri Lifestyle Magazine
Southern Missouri Lifestyle Magazine is built on community, and we believe the best stories are shared together. Whether you have an idea, an event to promote, or simply want to support local storytelling, there’s a place for you here.
What You Can Share
Big moments, small traditions, and everything in between.
Some of the best stories come from everyday life in Southern Missouri. We’re always looking for unique people, meaningful places, family traditions, local businesses, and community efforts that deserve to be highlighted.
If you have an idea — big or small — we’d love to hear it and explore it with you.
You don’t have to be a writer — just someone who knows a good story when you see one.
Share an Event
From festivals to fundraisers and everything in between.
Southern Missouri is full of events that bring people together, and we’re always happy to help spread the word. If you’re hosting or organizing a local event — whether it’s a community gathering, festival, workshop, fundraiser, or market — we invite you to share it with us for consideration.
Please include the event name, date, location, and a brief description so we can best showcase it for our readers.
Submitting an event is free and open to the community.

A deeper way to support local stories—coming soon.
We’re building Southern Missouri Lifestyle Magazine for the long term, and in the future we plan to introduce optional memberships for readers who want to be more involved. Memberships will be a way to support local storytelling while staying connected through special updates, exclusive content, and behind-the-scenes access.
For now, we’re focused on growing the magazine and serving our community. We’ll share full details when memberships officially launch.
