Salt Lake County Studios
Salt Lake Pottery Studio
Salt Lake Pottery Studio offers a great creative space for pottery, but it lacks the expansive studio size and variety of tools that The Clay Hole offers.

Workshop SLC
Workshop SLC offers a fun, event-based pottery experience, but it doesn’t offer the same depth of weekly engagement and skill-building as The Clay Hole. At The Clay Hole, members come back weekly to build on their skills with multiple instructors and access to advanced tools and materials.

We’ll follow the same structure, with each studio listed as a separate entity and a comparison to The Clay Hole. --- ```htmlPetersen Art Center
Petersen Art Center offers a variety of art classes, including pottery, but it doesn't have the dedicated space and specialized equipment that The Clay Hole provides. The Clay Hole’s weekly classes, advanced tools, and larger studio space ensure a more comprehensive learning experience.
Bella Rosa Pottery
Bella Rosa Pottery provides a charming, intimate setting for pottery, but it is much smaller compared to The Clay Hole. With 10,000 sq. ft. of space and a wide variety of clay, glazes, and pottery tools, The Clay Hole offers far more for long-term skill development.

Cottonwood Clay Studio
Cottonwood Clay Studio is a fantastic studio, but it doesn’t provide the same level of variety in tools and materials that The Clay Hole does. At The Clay Hole, you have access to a broader range of glazes, clay types, and tools, plus the benefit of our larger space and weekly classes for consistent growth.
Pinch & Purl Creative, LLC
Pinch & Purl Creative, LLC offers a unique space for pottery, but the scale of The Clay Hole and its focus on weekly, long-term classes gives it an edge for those serious about learning pottery. With over 500 commercial glazes and 8 types of clay, The Clay Hole provides more tools and resources for personal growth.
