Tickets Eventdetails

Lilacs? Check.
Jar? Check.
Texture? Absolutely.
In this relaxed painting session, we’re keeping things simple and slightly overbuilt. You’ll paint a bunch of lilacs sitting politely in a jar — just as expected — using expressive brushstrokes and deliciously textured paint. A masterclass on how to mix fifty shades of purple ;)

The style is loose, painterly, and tactile, with plenty of room to enjoy the process. No perfection required, just paint doing what paint does best.

Perfect for beginners and seasoned painters alike who enjoy flowers, surface, and a calm, creative session with a subtle sense of humor.

Tickets Eventdetails

Splash. Drip. Splatter. Total freedom.
The perfect stress release after a tense week.

In this action painting session, you’ll suit up in full-body protective overalls, grab your colours, and step into a space designed for making a glorious mess. Channel your inner Pollock as you throw, pour, drip, and smear paint with energy and spontaneity.

But this experience can be as wild — or as introspective — as you want it to be.

Beyond the action, this workshop also opens the door to intuitive painting: a space to slow down, tune in, and connect with your inner landscape. Through a short but meaningful introduction to colour theory, you’ll explore how thoughts and emotions can be translated into colour, movement, and form.

You’ll experiment with layering, different tools, and a wide range of mark-making techniques — from bold, expressive gestures to more subtle, intentional strokes. Throwing paint is just one of many possibilities — you choose where to place your focus.

No rules, no pressure — just pure expression, guided by our artists who support your individual approach and meet you where you are.

This is more than fun — it’s liberating. You’ll leave not only with a unique artwork, but with new ways to express yourself, release tension, and tap into your creativity — on and off the canvas.

✨ How PIE Action Painting Workshops Run
You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink — and instead of sitting down, you step into it. You’ll get your protective overalls, switch into painting mode, and get ready to let go a little. We start on time, so make sure you’re there and ready to dive in.

Next, your instructor takes the stage, giving you a quick, easy intro to the materials and tools — showing you what’s possible, how to move, splash, layer, and play. Nothing overwhelming, just getting you comfortable and ready to experiment.

Then the fun really begins. You’ll explore layering, different tools, and a wide range of mark-making techniques. The space is yours to explore: move between the splashing area, where you can let loose, and the refining area, where you can slow things down and shape your piece. Throughout the session, your instructor is there to guide you with personal tips and support.

At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — with your finished piece and great vibes.

No prior experience? No problem! We provide everything*:

A chill, friendly atmosphere
All the necessary art supplies
Full-body overalls and shoe protection
A mix of demonstration & individual guidance

* We provide protective overalls, but we highly recommend not wearing your favourite or most expensive clothes, as paint may still seep through. Please also bring a pair of socks that you don’t mind getting paint on or wet.

All you need to bring is your good vibes and curiosity! We’ll take care of the rest — starting with a complimentary welcome drink 🥂 to spark your creativity.

Lean back. Breathe out. Let it sway.
This one’s for slow moods and faraway places — where towering palm trees stretch endlessly into a hazy sky, and soft flamingo-pink clouds drift through a muted grey-blue landscape.

In this oil painting session, we’ll create a scene that feels both calm and exotic — working with subtle, desaturated colours that somehow still feel fresh, warm, and full of life. Think tall, elegant palms in olive greens, gentle contrasts, and a palette that glows quietly rather than loudly.

This is a perfect entry into oil painting — simple, relaxed, and hands-on. You’ll get a feel for the material, explore how colours blend and move, and build your painting step by step without overthinking it.

No pressure, no perfection — just an easy, atmospheric piece that takes you somewhere else. 🌴

Oil Painting - Safety Info
In our oil painting workshops we use turpentine, which produces strong vapours and must be handled with care. For this reason, the workshop is recommended for guests aged 15+ and not suitable during pregnancy or for children.

We provide gloves for safe painting, and the studio is well ventilated to ensure a comfortable environment. If you have any concerns, our instructors are happy to help.

Swirls. Gold. Curls. And that one tilted head you’ve definitely seen on a mug somewhere.
In this Klimt-inspired painting session, we’re diving into one of his most beautiful (and quietly powerful) works: Mother and Child from The Three Ages of Woman. You’ll learn how to recreate the dreamy figures, add your own twist, and work with patterns, symbolism, and a touch of that famous Klimt glow.

It’s sweet, it’s stylish, and honestly kind of emotional (in the best way). No stress. No pressure. Just you, some colour, and a chance to paint a modern tribute to one of the greats.
Bonus points for anyone who adds gold.

Soft. Lush. A little bit indulgent.
A blooming peony in peach and pink — melting almost seamlessly into a background of the same dreamy tones.

In this still life session, it’s all about letting go and trusting your brush. We’ll work with expressive strokes and soft layering to capture the fullness and movement of the flower, while gently guiding the shape so it sits just right in perspective.

Think rich, glowing colours that feel both vibrant and refined — tones that blend into each other, creating depth without ever feeling heavy. It’s loose, elegant, and quietly striking.
A painting that feels like a soft moment — and looks even better the longer you linger on it. 🌸

Clay-covered hands and a full creative cup

Hand-built Creations: A PIE Ceramics Workshop

PIE Ceramics Basel

from 95.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Tickets Eventdetails

Sculptural curves, handmade character.

Looking to level up your clay game? This hands-on ceramics workshop is all about learning the ancient (and oddly satisfying) coiling technique — and using it to build your very own vessel or vase with serious personality.

With step-by-step guidance from our instructor, you’ll shape your piece coil by coil, curve by curve — building form, balance, and your own artistic flair as you go. Whether you lean classic or a little wild, there’s plenty of room to experiment with size, silhouette, and style.

In this class, you will create a vase or vessel approximately 20–25 cm tall. This size is achievable for beginners within the available time using the coiling technique.

Expect useful demos, creative detours, and a relaxed studio vibe that encourages questions, happy accidents, and the occasional “what if I try this?” moment.

Once your piece is complete, we’ll glaze and fire it for you. Ready for pickup in around 4 weeks.

🎨 Want to give it colour too? You’ll get a discount to return for a painting session and decorate your ceramic creation with your own splash of magic.

This one’s for anyone who wants to slow down, shape something special, and make a piece that’s equal parts functional and fabulous.

✨ 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.

In this relaxed, beginner-friendly event, you’ll learn the basics of wheel throwing, how to center the clay, and how to pull up your very first form – maybe a cup, maybe something totally unexpected (and that’s perfectly okay).

We’ll embrace wobbles, curves, and character, celebrating the Japanese art of Wabi-Sabi – finding beauty in imperfection and joy in the process, not just the result.

No experience? No problem. You’ll leave with a piece that’s 100% yours – shaped by your hands and full of personality.

✨ 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.
