A hands-on ceramics workshop where crisp lines, bold patterns, and satisfying reveals take center stage.
Painting with glaze is fun. Painting with tape is genius.

Here’s how it works:
You’ll start with two pre-fired ceramic pieces (one medium, one large — included in the class). Then you’ll map out your pattern, mask it with precision, glaze it with flair, and peel it back to see your masterpiece come to life.
What you’ll learn:
- How to design with tape and stencils for strong visual impact
- Glaze layering techniques for contrast and clarity
- Tips for avoiding smudges, gaps, or drips
- The confidence to get bold and try something new
You’ll leave with:
- Two finished ceramic pieces glazed and ready to fire
- A new masking skillset and a few design tricks
- That “ooh!” feeling when the tape comes off just right
All tools and materials are included. Additional or larger pieces available on site for an extra charge.
✨ No experience needed — just bring your curiosity. We’ll bring the tape.

🗝️ Box of Wonders: Craft Your Keepsake
Ever dreamed of making something with your hands that’s both beautiful and meaningful? In this cosy ceramics event, you’ll create your very own ceramic keepsake box — complete with a perfectly fitting lid and loads of creative charm.
You’ll learn the basics of hand-building as you form, sculpt, and personalise your piece. Think texture, shape, and sweet little design details that make it truly yours. Whether it holds jewellery, secrets, wishes, or just good vibes, this box becomes a one-of-a-kind treasure — made by you.
🧱 No experience needed — just curiosity, imagination, and a willingness to get your hands joyfully messy.
After the event, we’ll glaze and fire your piece. It’ll be ready to pick up in about 4 weeks — your own little ceramic time capsule, made with love.
✨ 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.

FAQs - the most important facts about our ceramics studio in Zurich
That depends on what you want to do: You need to book for workshops, courses and studio times so that we can prepare your space and materials. We also recommend booking for the Creative Café - especially at weekends. Spontaneous drop-ins are sometimes possible - it's best to enquire shortly beforehand.
This is the right place for you if you have already gained some experience in pottery.
Yes, definitely! If you already have experience, our Studio Classes or the Open Atelier are just right for you. Become a member, use the space for your projects - or get in touch with us directly so that we can find the right programme for you.
In short: better not - the wrong clay or glaze can really pop during firing 💥. But: If you want to use your own materials, talk to our ceramics team. We'll see together whether and how it's possible.
Our ceramics studio has regular opening hours during which you can make pottery at your leisure. Of course you can also register for courses & co.
After pottery or painting, your piece needs time to dry - then it will be fired within 2-4 weeks. If you are not a member, you can then collect your work within 4 weeks. Unfortunately, we cannot keep it any longer after that.
Depending on the temperature and type of firing, a firing process takes around 24 to 36 hours - including heating, holding and cooling. As we collect several pieces before filling the kiln, it can take up to 2-4 weeks for your work to be fully fired.
