A bold, textured bird portrait with creamy layers, colour, and character.

This bird isn’t just perched — it’s posing.


In this vibrant painting session, we’re giving the great tit a full-on glamour moment: thick, sculpted strokes, glossy feathers you can almost touch, and a background in unapologetic pink.

You’ll work with modelling paste and rich acrylics to build a portrait that’s part painting, part sculpture — playing with light, shadow, and feather detail until your bird is brimming with personality.

It’s tactile, it’s joyful, and it’s a little bit fabulous.

Fluorescent, fabulous, and floating into your heart.

Dive into the deep, dark, and dazzling as we paint one of the ocean’s most mesmerizing creatures: the jellyfish. Ethereal, elegant, and slightly alien, these floaty wonders are the stars of this one-night-only art session.

You’ll create your own glowing jelly in motion — translucent, tentacled, and totally hypnotic. And here’s the twist: we’ll be using fluorescent paint that glows in the dark. Yep. When the lights go out, your jellyfish lights up like it just left a rave in the Mariana Trench. 🪼💫

Landscapes? More like dreamscapes. Let’s get surreal.

Ready to paint something that looks like it came straight out of your imagination? In this guided session, we’ll ditch the ordinary and explore dreamy, surreal landscapes using acrylic paint, sponge, palette knife, and a good dose of creative courage.

Think shifting skies, floating hills, glowing colours, unexpected shapes — this is where rules melt and intuition takes the lead. Whether your dreamworld is calm and misty or wild and cosmic, we’ll help you bring it to life on canvas.

This isn’t about painting what’s “real” — it’s about painting what feels real to you.

One glow, all the mystery, maximum vibes.

Ready to get lost in warmth and light?
In this abstract painting session, we’re blending dusky pinks, creamy beige, and shimmering gold — building layers of depth, glow, and quiet drama without painting anything specific.

It’s all about mood on canvas. You’ll create soft fades, luminous highlights, and rich textures that shift as the light hits them. No rules, no right or wrong — just a chance to sink into colour and let it move the way it wants.

Whether you see sunset, silk, or something entirely your own, this one’s about feeling, flow, and that golden moment you never want to end.

Up to 20% discount for Members

🎡 Just curious? Even better.

This is your chance to dip a toe (or both hands!) into the wild, whirling world of the pottery wheel — no pressure, no experience needed. In this wheel-throwing taster workshop, you’ll learn how to center, pull, and shape clay like a true ceramic boss. It’s messy, magical, and way more satisfying than your average Saturday scroll session.

You’ll get hands-on with the basics of wheel-throwing — and walk away with at least one piece to call your own. Plus, you’ll leave knowing whether this hobby is a fling or the beginning of a full-blown love affair.

No experience necessary. Just bring your curiosity — we’ll handle the spin cycle.

  • The option to keep more pieces for CHF 15 each
  • The pure joy of creating something from spinning mud
  • A solid intro to wheel-throwing, and whether a full course is your next step

🧠 Who It’s For

  • Total newbies who’ve always wanted to try “that Ghost movie thing”
  • Hands-on creatives craving a screen-free adventure
  • Friends, dates, teams — anyone up for a shared spin
  • Future potters testing the waters before diving into a full course

🥂 Sip & Spin

You’ll be welcomed with a free drink of your choice — prosecco, wine, beer, tea, coffee or our Cocktail of the Week🍸

Need a bite?
Our Creative Café is open during the session with wraps, salad bowls, snacks & sweets.

📦 A Few More Things to Know

  • No need to bring anything – just wear something comfy you don’t mind getting a bit clay-kissed
  • Please arrive 10–15 minutes early to settle in
  • Firing and glazing takes 4 weeks – we’ll let you know when your piece is ready

Jungle Greens: Leaf-inspired Trays and Plates

Shape & Fun: PIE Ceramics Event

  • PIE Event
  • Beginner
  • PIE Zürich
  • 2.5 hours
from 89.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

One event. Two creative vibes. Endless leafy goodness.

Ready to roll up your sleeves and make something truly yours? In this all-in-one ceramics event, you’ll shape and paint your very own leaf-inspired plate — earthy, elegant, and totally handmade by you.

✨ Part One: Shape it

We’ll guide you through the basics of hand-building with clay, showing you how to form a beautiful plate with soft, organic curves inspired by nature. Whether you keep it simple or add textured details, this is your chance to slow down and get grounded (in the best way).

🎨 Part Two: Paint it

Once your plate is shaped, you’ll dive into underglaze painting — adding colour, contrast, and your personal touch. Our instructors will be there to offer tips and inspo, but you make the creative calls. Botanical pattern? Bright autumn tones? Jungle chic? You do you.

🧡 After the event, we’ll take care of glazing and firing your piece. It’ll be ready to pick up in about 4 weeks — a little slice of ceramic joy, handmade and totally unique.

Perfect for first-timers, nature lovers, and anyone who wants to make something slow, soulful, and stunning.


✨ How PIE Ceramics Events Work

Treat yourself to a hands-on creative moment — where you can sip, snack, and sculpt your way through a fun and relaxing ceramics session. Whether you come solo, with friends, or for a team night out, you’ll enjoy a feel-good atmosphere, great company, and your very own ceramic creation to take home (well… after it’s been fired 😉).

Each event is led by one of our friendly ceramic artists, who’ll guide you step-by-step through shaping and decorating your piece. No pressure, no perfection — just good vibes, creative flow, and the joy of getting your hands dirty in the best possible way.

Most of our events take place in our beautiful, cosy studios in Zürich and Basel — fully equipped, full of charm, and designed to spark your imagination. Every now and then, we also pop up in partner venues like bars, cafés, or sunny outdoor locations.

from 95.– CHF

🎡 Just curious? Even better.

This is your chance to dip a toe (or both hands!) into the wild, whirling world of the pottery wheel — no pressure, no experience needed. In this wheel-throwing taster workshop, you’ll learn how to center, pull, and shape clay like a true ceramic boss. It’s messy, magical, and way more satisfying than your average Saturday scroll session.

You’ll get hands-on with the basics of wheel-throwing — and walk away with at least one piece to call your own. Plus, you’ll leave knowing whether this hobby is a fling or the beginning of a full-blown love affair.

No experience necessary. Just bring your curiosity — we’ll handle the spin cycle.

  • A chill, beginner-friendly session led by our wheel-throwing wizards
  • Step-by-step intro to centering, pulling, and shaping on the wheel
  • Time to finesse your form and feel the clay do its thing
  • A playful, supportive vibe where mistakes are just part of the fun
  • All tools, clay, and good energy provided

🎁 What You’ll Take Home

  • One fired & glazed ceramic piece (included in the price — we’ll handle the rest)
  • The option to keep more pieces for CHF 15 each
  • The pure joy of creating something from spinning mud
  • A solid intro to wheel-throwing, and whether a full course is your next step

🧠 Who It’s For

  • Total newbies who’ve always wanted to try “that Ghost movie thing”
  • Hands-on creatives craving a screen-free adventure
  • Friends, dates, teams — anyone up for a shared spin
  • Future potters testing the waters before diving into a full course

🥂 Sip & Spin

You’ll be welcomed with a free drink of your choice — prosecco, wine, beer, tea, coffee or our Cocktail of the Week🍸
Feeling fancy? We serve a curated selection of cocktails, mocktails and smoothies for just CHF 5–9 more.

Need a bite?
Our Creative Café is open during the session with wraps, salad bowls, snacks & sweets.

Beautifully Textured Surfaces

Carved Elegance: a PIE Ceramic Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Zürich
  • 2.5 hours
from 79.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Shape it. Press it. Pattern it. Fall in love with the feel of clay.

In this tactile ceramics workshop, it’s all about the surface — how it feels, how it catches the light, how it tells a story. You’ll hand-build a functional or decorative ceramic piece (think bowl, plate, or something sculptural), and explore how to make its surface uniquely yours through texture and pattern.

Under the step-by-step guidance of our instructor, you’ll learn how to form your base shape and then experiment with different techniques: imprinting, carving, stamping, layering — and of course, a bit of freestyle play.

There’ll be inspiration all around, and plenty of space to explore your own style.

🎨 Want to add colour later? You’ll receive a discount to join one of our painting sessions and glaze your own handmade object.

🔥 After the workshop, we’ll glaze and fire your piece. It’ll be ready for pickup in approx. 4 weeks — textured, finished, and totally one of a kind.

Whether you’re new to clay or already hooked, this is a perfect workshop to get your hands moving and your creativity flowing — 
one surface at a time.

✨ How PIE Ceramics Workshops Work

Our ceramics workshops are one-off sessions designed for intensive skill-sharing in a relaxed, creative atmosphere. Whether you’re just starting your journey with clay or already have some experience and want to explore a new technique, this is the perfect chance to get your hands dirty, learn something new — and follow your creativity wherever it leads.

Each workshop focuses on a specific process or form, guided by a professional ceramic artist. You’ll learn the core technique step by step, then have space to experiment, personalise, and take your piece in whatever direction feels right to you. It’s structured, supportive, and creatively wide open.

Workshops take place in our cosy, fully-equipped studios in Zürich and Basel, where everything’s set up to support your creative flow — including materials, tools, good lighting, and good vibes.

No pressure, no perfection — just the joy of discovering what you can create with your own two hands.
