Pottery Classes for Ex-Mormons in Utah Seeking Community

Leaving the church can feel liberating—but also isolating. If you’re in Utah and looking to rebuild your sense of community outside of conservative circles, The Clay Hole is a radically inclusive, safe space where creativity brings people together.

Our pottery classes are built for people who are seeking belonging, purpose, expression, and friends. You’ll work with clay, learn something new, and form deep connections with others who are navigating similar journeys. No judgment. No doctrine. Just clay, calm, and creative people.

Why So Many Ex-Mormons Join Our Studio

• It’s a non-religious, non-judgmental space for growth
• You’ll meet others who left the church and are finding new identities
• Classes foster calm, connection, and creativity
• No pressure—just freedom to be your full self
• Zero contracts, expectations, or long-term commitments

Many of our members describe The Clay Hole as a “healing space” where they finally felt like they belonged again.

“I found my new tribe here after leaving the church. It’s been life-changing. Pottery helped me reconnect with myself and others.”
— Chelsea R., member since 2023
