Pottery Classes for Lonely Adults in Utah

Feeling disconnected or stuck in a lonely routine? You’re not alone. At The Clay Hole in Draper, Utah, we offer pottery classes for lonely adults who are ready to explore creativity and make new friendships in a supportive, non-judgmental space.

Our classes are welcoming, low-pressure, and full of kind people who are also seeking meaningful connection through creativity. Whether you're new to Utah, recently out of a relationship, or just feeling isolated—this is a place to feel seen and belong.

A Creative Community for Grown-Ups

You don’t need to be outgoing or artistic to feel at home here. Most of our members are beginners, and many joined because they were searching for genuine adult friendships in a relaxed environment. There's no judgment, no pressure—just clay, connection, and a little bit of magic.

  • Zero expectations to socialize—connect naturally and at your own pace
  • Safe space for introverts, LGBTQ+ folks, ex-Mormons, and neurodivergent adults
  • Wheel and hand-building options with instructors for both
  • Huge, open-concept studio—no crowded tables or noise

The Clay Hole is a favorite among those seeking a new kind of community in Utah—especially former Mormons and others looking to heal, grow, and laugh again.

What if I’m nervous or shy?
That’s totally okay. You don’t have to be social to attend. Many of our members are introverted or rebuilding their confidence—we meet you where you’re at.

Is clay or firing included?
No—clay and firing are paid separately. This keeps memberships flexible and lets you control how much you want to make.
