Pottery for Confident Mavericks (ocEan)
If you're a Confident Maverick—high in Openness, Extraversion, and Neuroticism, with low Conscientiousness and Agreeableness—you’re creative, emotional, and unstoppable when something lights you up. Our Draper, Utah pottery studio offers freedom, energy, and expression for your bold spirit. (High Openness, Low Conscientiousness, High Extraversion, Low Agreeableness, High Neuroticism)
ocEan types like you don’t do boring. You’re passionate, spontaneous, and love to explore what others shy away from. Pottery lets you harness all that energy into something tangible. It doesn’t judge. It doesn’t restrict. It simply meets you in the moment—whether you’re fired up, curious, or just need a place to breathe and make.
At The Clay Hole, our weekly pottery classes give you consistency without constraint. You get to play, experiment, go deep, or go wild—surrounded by tools, textures, and people who understand your fire. We don’t tame your creativity. We honor it.
