I'm getting an Access Denied error with Amazon S3 and can't figure out why.
My settings are as follows:
STATIC_URL = 'http://s3.amazonaws.com/%s/' % AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
What would cause an access denied error? I have verified that my keys are correct.

If you're getting Access Denied errors on public read requests that are allowed, check the bucket's Amazon S3 Block Public Access settings. Review the S3 Block Public Access settings at both the account and bucket level. These settings can override permissions that allow public read access.
Short description. The "403 Access Denied" error can occur due to the following reasons: Your AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) user or role doesn't have permissions for both s3:GetBucketPolicy and s3:PutBucketPolicy.
Using Amazon S3 Block Public Access as a centralized way to limit public access. Block Public Access settings override bucket policies and object permissions. Be sure to enable Block Public Access for all accounts and buckets that you don't want publicly accessible.
The URL you show above would resolve to a bucket within S3. In order to access that bucket successfully with such a URL, the permissions on the bucket would have to grant 'public-read' access to the bucket. In addition, each object or file within the bucket would have to grant 'public-read' access, as well.
Do you want the bucket and all content within the bucket to be readable by anyone? If so, make sure the permissions are set appropriately. Note, however, that granting 'public-read' to the bucket itself will allow anyone to list the contents of the bucket. That's usually unnecessary and probably should be avoided.
Also note that the keys (I assume you mean your AWS access key and secret key) only apply when you are accessing S3 via the API. If you simply access it with the URL via a browser, the credentials are not used in the request.
