Wreck the glaze wall. Leave an offering for Icarus, God of Kilns. Pull your daily card. Scream it into the void. Four small pages made for our members and open to anyone, with nothing to sign up for.
Two of them destroy things on purpose, one keeps a careful record and one hands you something kind. Each one opens in a new tab.
Pick an icon under the photo, anything from Alien abduction to Zombies, and hold it for about a second and a half. Then the wall gets what is coming to it. More than a hundred to choose from, sorted A to Z, with more on the way.
Tell him who approaches and pick a blessing, from guarding you against cracks to delivering you from air bubbles. Then give up something worth giving: a secret, a kind word about somebody else or a boast about yourself. He makes no promises.
Tell the cards what to call you, answer two little questions about how today is sitting with you, and one card finds you. Three more wait face down underneath, the same three for everyone until midnight. Keep coming back until all 100 have found you.
Type the part you have been being polite about, in all caps if it helps. Pick how it goes (a meteor, a black hole, the sun, a shredder and more) and hold the button down for about a second. Escape wipes the box if somebody walks up.
Tap whichever sounds most like today, and we will point you to the right one.
Pick the one that sounds like today. The right page shows up here.
Find the most ridiculous icon on the list and hold it down. The wall has been through more than a hundred of these. It can take one more.
Ask for the blessing your piece needs, from cracks to air bubbles, and give him something worth giving up. Bribes do not work on him. Flattery might.
Two little questions, then a card finds you. It is the same ritual that waits at every seat in class, minus the clay on your hands.
Type it as loud as you like, pick how it gets destroyed and hold the button. Nothing is saved, nothing is sent and nobody reads it.
Get it out in the void first, take whatever is left out on the glaze wall, ask Icarus to go easy on the next firing, and end on something kind.
All four open for anyone, with no login and no cost. Icarus and the cards ask what to call you, and a nickname works for both.
Each one is written down and kept, and the owner of The Clay Hole can read it. Give Icarus a name that is not your own if you want a secret to stay yours. He answers to those too.
Nothing typed into the void is saved or sent, and nobody reads it but you. Press Escape and the box wipes clean.
Your collection saves itself in the browser you use. If you browse privately or clear your history, the card page has a save and reload option for exactly that.
The card page can also email you one card a day, in order, until all 100 have found you.
The glaze wall in the videos stands in our studio, Icarus hangs on a studio wall, and a real card waits at every seat in class.
No. All four open for anyone, with no login and no cost. Members get the in-person versions too: the real glaze wall, Icarus on the studio wall and a card at every seat in class.
In the menu at the top of every page. Open Quickies, then Extra fun, and all four are there.
Icarus is a carved wooden mask, so no. The owner of The Clay Hole can, because every offering is written down and kept. Use a name that is not your own if you would rather stay anonymous.
Yes. It is not saved, it is not sent, and nobody reads it but you.
Yes. The wrecking happens on screen only. The real wall is still standing in our Draper studio.
100 can find you on the website, one a day. The three face-down cards are the same for everyone and stay out of your collection. The 101st card only ever happens in person.
Along with the wheels, the kilns and a room full of people making things. Membership is how a seat at the table becomes yours. Come make something.
The Clay Hole, 12896 S Pony Express Rd, Suite 100, Draper, UT 84020. Directions.
Tools and pictures for the time you spend actually making pottery.

Almost done
Done
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.

One question
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?
That is how we work out where the demand actually is. The rest is so we know who to tell.
Got it
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.
