The Town of Higgertyville is a funny little town located somewhere in North America. It's the only town in history that was founded on a hairstyle, the infamous Fluff-O-Whip.
Settled in 1509, by the Higgertys, known for their unique hair that puffed up and whipped sideways for some unknown reason, planted roots here and a community grew around a piano key making factory they constructed.
A strange, but adorable little place, visitors say it smells like cinnamon and onion butter. We hope you enjoy visiting and spending time with the community, its inhabitants and of course the Artvengers!

Harland created The Artvengers animation series on the heels of his other incredible animation creation, Puppy Dog Pals, for Walt Disney. At the five-year conclusion of the hit show, Harland imagined a new show that skewed a little older. Creating the Artvengers was the perfect concept. A show that spoke to young artists, conveying to them that their art is not just a skill, but a power. A power to succeed, a power to move the world, and a power to change lives! Themes that both Harland and Steve embraced on their journey.
Sadly, after the show was rejected by all the major studios, Harland refused to give up on it, and when the opportunity came along to create it on his own with his friends, that’s just what he did. And so here we are, The Artvengers animation series, alive and kicking!
We hope you enjoy this series that hopefully encourages the next wave of creators to believe in their ideas, and even more in their art!
