Missouri, the Show-Me State, mirrors the demographic, economic and political makeup of the nation with a mix of urban and rural culture. The state is well known for its contributions to the musical styles of jazz and blues as well as to cuisine and the arts. Visual arts and design are major contributors to the economy in Missouri. St. Louis, for example, has $1 billion pumped into its market via the arts industry, and equates it to being the area's 3rd largest employer. Kansas City is the state’s largest city and has long fostered famous-name artists, from George Caleb Bingham in the 19th century to Thomas Hart Benton and Walt Disney in the 20th and is also famous for its steak and barbecue. An area of interest for design students in Downtown Kansas City is the 39th Street District which features one of Kansas City's largest selections of independently owned restaurants and boutique shops. It is also a center of literary, visual arts and bohemian culture. Kansas City is also home to a vibrant and active independent film community. The Independent Filmmaker's Coalition of Kansas City is an organization dedicated to expanding and improving independent filmmaking in Kansas City.
