They were led by a quirky character named Crafty Cactus Carl, who was, as you might guess, a talking cactus with a top hat and a love for all things artsy. His needles weren’t prickly, but instead served as paintbrushes, knitting needles, and everything in between. He was as colorful as the state's wild sunsets, with a jovial spirit that inspired all kids to create the most magical art and crafts.
