One night that is yours. You came for the hours where your phone is face down and your hands are too covered in clay to reach for it. A hard month is exactly when a person needs that.
Your reason is reason enough. Money got tight. The calendar filled up. Something went sideways that nobody planned for. None of that is a character flaw.
Two taps, and your to-do list is empty. Pay for the months you need. No portal step, nothing to cancel, no text to confirm. We move your billing date, and it starts again on its own.
Fill the seats yourself and keep the profit. There is no commission on a ticket you sell. After the room rent and 2.7 percent card processing, the rest is yours.
We do not fill your seats. So we wrote down the plan we would follow, for artists who would rather make things than sell them.
We love helping promote, for a cut. An email list over 1,000 people and a social following around 3 million worldwide, though most of it is nowhere near Draper.

Six Friday nights when the microphones come out with the clay
Every other month, a regular Friday night session gets a karaoke queue, phone trivia on the big screen and a bag full of Amazon gift cards. Your wheel is still your wheel and your project is still on the table. Sing, play, do both, or quietly throw a bowl while somebody attempts Bonnie Tyler.
We reserve the right to cancel a Clayraoke and Trivia night if interest is not there to support it. Check this page before you plan your week around one.
The short version
A regular pottery session with a microphone in it
Two QR codes go up on the big screen when the night starts. One gets you into the song queue, one gets you into trivia. That is the entire sign-up process, and it happens after you are already here.
The singing half
Pick a song, get in the queue
Scan the Clayraoke code, search the KaraFun library and add yourself to the queue. We call you when you are up. Duets, trios and whole tables are welcome. Badly is fine.
The trivia half
You against everybody in the building
Scan the trivia code and answer on your phone. We run Kahoot, with a live leaderboard between rounds. It is regular trivia, not glaze chemistry.
The prize
One person reaches into the bag
Every song you sing and every round you win earns an entry card, with no cap. At the end of the night one name is drawn, and that person pulls an Amazon gift card from the bag, anywhere from $10 to $500.
You can work on your pottery the entire time
The wheels are running, the slab rollers are out, the glaze shelves are open and your shelf is where you left it. Some genuinely good pots have been thrown while somebody butchered a Journey song a few feet away. Nobody is going to walk over and put a microphone in your hand.
How brave are you feeling
Pick your kind of Clayraoke night
Every one of these is a completely normal way to spend the night. Tap yours.
Tonight, I want to...
Pick an answer on the left. Each one tells you exactly what your night looks like.
Front of the queue
You are the reason the night works
Scan the Clayraoke code, pick from the KaraFun library and get in the queue early. Every song you sing earns an entry card for the gift card drawing, and there is no cap. Sing five, get five.
Duets, trios and an entire table getting up together are all encouraged, and it happens more often than you would expect. Every person who sings gets their own entry card for every song.
Scan the trivia code, answer on your phone and watch the leaderboard between rounds. Win a round and you get an entry card. No cap on those either, so win every round and take every card.
The studio runs normally all night. You get your session, your wheel and your shelf, plus a live soundtrack of variable quality. A good number of people spend the whole night exactly like this.
Bring a Friend works exactly as it does on any other night. The pass is 25% of your monthly fee, capped at $42.50, and your guest signs the studio waiver before they come. There is no spectator seat, so they make something too.
It is BYOB. Bring whatever you feel like drinking and snacking on. A few things we do ask.
Keep it classy
This is a room full of adults having a nice evening, not a bar at closing time. Do not get stupid drunk. That is the entire policy.
Keep your drink closed
Eat and drink at your station like any other night. Your drink has a lid on it, so a knocked elbow cannot end somebody’s piece.
Be sober when you leave
If you are tipsy at all when the session ends, get a ride. We would much rather your car sat here overnight.
No underage drinking
Not negotiable. Like most things here, it runs on members managing themselves.
Who can come
18 and over, or 14 and up alongside a parent or guardian who is also a member. People drink at evening sessions and the language is not especially filtered.
Nothing to reserve
A Clayraoke night is a regular session, so you come the way you would any other Friday. It uses one of the classes your Level includes.
Questions
The questions we get every time
Do I have to sing?
No. Plenty of people never touch a microphone and have a great night anyway. The only thing you give up by not singing is the entry cards that come with every song.
Do I have to play trivia?
Also no. You can do both, either or neither, and nobody will comment on it.
Does it use one of my classes?
Yes. It is a normal session with a microphone in it, so it comes out of the classes your Level includes, like any other night.
Do I need to sign up beforehand?
No. Both QR codes go up on the big screen once the night starts, and that is where you join the song queue and the trivia game.
What songs can I choose from?
We run the KaraFun library, which covers very nearly everything. If you can name the song, assume it is in there.
What are the gift cards worth?
Every card in the bag is an Amazon gift card between $10 and $500. Five in six of them are $10 cards, so a $10 pull is the normal result. The bigger ones are in there too.
Can I bring a friend?
Yes, on a normal Bring a Friend pass. It costs 25% of your monthly fee, capped at $42.50, and your guest signs the studio waiver before they come in.
Can a night be canceled?
Yes. We reserve the right to cancel a night if interest is not there to support it, so check this page before you plan your week around one.
Come make a spectacle of yourself
Or come and quietly throw a bowl
Both are completely normal here. Put the next night in your calendar, and pick your song on the drive over.

New member deal
30 of 30 discounted spots left this month
Every month we discount 30 new memberships. Then that is it until the 1st.
Tell us where to send it and this month’s deal lands in your inbox. If this month runs out, you get next month’s before it opens.
Almost done
Where should we send it?
Done
On its way.
It should land in the next few minutes. One thing while you wait: we are members only and we do not run walk-in tours, so the virtual tour is the closest you can get to standing in one.
Would you want to know if a Clay Hole opened near you?
We started in Draper, Utah, and we would like to be in more places than that. Where they go next is the part we have not worked out yet.
Where are you?
The zip code is the part that counts.
That is how we work out where the demand actually is. The rest is so we know who to tell.
Got it
You are on the map.
Being straight with you: this could be a long wait, and we will not email you in the meantime. If your area is where the numbers land, you will be the first to know.
