Pottery Classes for People New to Utah or Looking for Community

We offer weekly pottery classes in Draper that double as low-pressure, high-vibe creative hangouts. You’ll meet open-minded, welcoming people who care more about art and real conversation than appearances or conformity.

“I moved to Utah not knowing anyone. The Clay Hole gave me friends, confidence, and a creative outlet. I don’t feel alone anymore.”
