ADHD Community & Pottery Classes for Adults in Utah
Being an adult with ADHD can feel isolating—especially in Utah, where so many social circles revolve around high energy, neurotypical expectations, or rigid routines. If you’ve ever wished for a quiet space to belong, where no one expects you to perform or explain your brain, welcome to The Clay Hole.
Our pottery classes for ADHD adults in Utah are designed not just to spark creativity—but to create community, side by side, one slab or wheel-thrown bowl at a time.
Low-Pressure Connection That Doesn’t Drain You
According to ADDitude Magazine, loneliness and social disconnection are common struggles for ADHD adults. But traditional social events can be overwhelming or fake-feeling.
Pottery offers something better. You can quietly create alongside others. Share glaze tips. Or just exist together in a space that feels safe. No performance. No forced group activities. Just natural, creative connection.
- No icebreakers or awkward introductions
- Talk if you want, stay quiet if you don’t
- Side-by-side work that supports gentle bonding
- A neurodivergent-friendly crowd, many with ADHD themselves
You might also relate to our pottery for introverts page—there’s a lot of overlap in what makes these spaces feel safe and restorative.

FAQ
I struggle with social anxiety—will I be expected to talk?
Not at all. Many members work silently, wear headphones, or just wave hello. Everyone respects your space and boundaries.
Is clay or firing included in the membership?
No—those are billed separately so you only pay for what you use. Most ADHD adults find that helpful and flexible.
