Pottery for Warm Communicators (OCean)
If you're a Warm Communicator—high in Openness, Conscientiousness, and Extraversion, with deep emotional grounding—you’re a natural bridge-builder, feeler, and expressive thinker. Our pottery studio in Draper, Utah helps you create and connect in ways that truly resonate. (High Openness, High Conscientiousness, High Extraversion, Low Agreeableness, High Neuroticism)
OCean types like you tend to shine in conversations, reflect deeply, and bring people together with care. You’re creative but grounded, expressive but emotionally aware. You want the things you make to say something. Pottery offers the perfect medium for this blend—where form, function, and feeling all matter.
At The Clay Hole, we’ve built more than a studio—we’ve created a sanctuary for creative growth and personal warmth. Weekly classes (not one-time events) give you time to build relationships, explore ideas, and feel part of something real. You don’t just learn pottery here—you share parts of yourself.
Why pottery is ideal for Warm Communicators
- You want to express yourself authentically—pottery gives you a beautiful, tangible way to speak without words.
- You care about relationships—our membership structure helps you build community over time, not just in passing.
- You enjoy thoughtful, hands-on creation—pottery lets you engage your senses, your mind, and your heart all at once.
- You’re motivated by meaning—our studio supports exploration of both artistic voice and emotional healing.
Our Draper, Utah studio includes nearly 10,000 square feet of pottery joy—slab rollers, thousands of tools, eight clays, and a stunning glaze wall with 500+ commercial glazes and 100+ underglazes. Every inch is designed to help you feel inspired, supported, and free to express what matters to you.
We’re not a quiet warehouse of strangers—we’re a buzzing, kind-hearted hub of people who want art to feel personal and pottery to feel joyful. Whether you're chatting at the glaze wall or sharing snacks in our lounge, connection is part of the experience.
