In The Arts
Artist Gilbert Gaul (1855–1919), who gained national acclaim for his Civil War illustrations, operated from a studio south of Spencer on land currently owned by the park.
Fall Creek Falls State Park was used as one of the primary filming locations for the Disney live action movie The Jungle Book and the comedy/science fiction film Dr. Otto and the Riddle of the Gloom Beam, starring Jim Varney. Scenes from the 1986 movie King Kong Lives, starring Linda Hamilton, were filmed in the area of Cane Creek Cascades and Cane Creek Falls.

Famous quotes containing the word arts:
“I haven’t seen so much tippy-toeing around since the last time I went to the ballet. When members of the arts community were asked this week about one of their biggest benefactors, Philip Morris, and its requests that they lobby the New York City Council on the company’s behalf, the pas de deux of self- justification was so painstakingly choreographed that it constituted a performance all by itself.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
