A DIY workshop was held at Discovery Gateway in Salt Lake City in September 2013. It was sponsored by Cricut and hosted an 11-year old artist, Hailey Stephens, who taught participants how to make an octopus in the bathtub sculpture using polymer clay. The workshop supported Discovery Gateway's mission to inspire imagination and discovery in children of all ages.
