Creative workshop for children

Children love to express themselves through art - with brushes, colour and lots of imagination. In our afternoon courses, young artists are not only given the right materials, but also the space to develop freely. Our mission: to boost self-confidence, encourage creativity and create an inspiring place where art comes to life.

Fantasy & design

This is not about colouring, but about creative experiences.

Freedom & fun

Children can try things out - without fear of spills or drops of paint.

Discover talent

Art also trains concentration, patience and expressiveness - without any pressure.

Children's studio

Dabbling, scribbling, creating art - the most creative afternoon courses for children in Switzerland.

Colours, imagination & lots of fun - the most creative holiday courses for young artists

Lots of fun, lots of creativity and lots of new ideas for children aged 3-12.

Holiday activities for children - creative experiences with a varied programme
Welcome to our Kids Camp, where creativity and adventure go hand in hand! Throughout the week, we’ll paint, work with clay, and dive into all sorts of crafty projects. We’ll also explore museums, play games both indoors and outdoors, watch an artsy movie together, and start every morning with a little yoga and dance to wake up our bodies and imaginations. It’s the perfect mix of movement, creativity, and big smiles.

Your camp fee includes all art materials, entry to external activities, and all daily meals (znüni, lunch, and zvieri). The only extra cost not included is transportation for excursions, such as tram tickets.

Schedule & Location of Our Holiday Camp
Our holiday camps run on weekdays over a two-week period, with daily supervision from 8:45 am to 5:15 pm. Each group is kept cosy and creative with a minimum of 8 and a maximum of 16 children.

Daily Schedule*
08:45 – 09:00 Drop-off time
09:00 – 10:15 Yoga, dance & active warm-ups
10:15 – 10:30 Znüni (morning snack)
10:30 – 12:00 Morning art project
12:00 – 12:45 Lunch
12:45 – 15:15 Excursions (indoor or outdoor adventures)
15:30 – 17:00 Afternoon art project
17:00 – 17:15 Pick-up

*Outdoor activities and excursions may be adjusted depending on the weather — creativity never stops, but sometimes umbrellas join the fun.

Language
While most of our instructors speak German, the official camp language is English.

Location
Our camp takes place across two nearby studios: Bederstrasse 94 and Schulhausstrasse 52. Morning drop-offs take place at Bederstrasse 94, while afternoon pick-ups happen at Schulhausstrasse 52. The two locations are only a 3-minute walk apart.

!!! Important Information for Parents (Please Read Before Signing Up) !!!

Age Requirements
Our camp is designed for children aged 6 and above. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate younger children, even if an older sibling is participating. The majority of our campers are between 8 and 9 years old, and the program, activities, and overall pace of the day are tailored specifically to this age group.

Younger children often find it challenging to keep up comfortably, and we want every participant to feel confident, included, and safe. Thank you very much for your understanding.

Drop-off & Pick-up Times
To keep our camp running smoothly, we kindly ask all parents to respect the official drop-off and pick-up times.

Drop-off begins at 8:45 am, and we may not be able to accommodate early arrivals, as our team is preparing the space and activities for the day.
Similarly, we ask that all children are picked up no later than 5:15 pm. If a child is picked up late, an additional supervision fee may apply to cover the staff’s extended time.

Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation — it helps us create the best possible environment for all campers!

Food
Although we provide food throughout the day, we kindly ask that your child arrives having had a proper breakfast. Our morning snack consists of a smoothie and a cookie, which may not be enough to keep children energized until lunch if they start the day hungry.

Behaviour Expectations
To ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for all children, we kindly ask parents to understand that repeatedly disruptive behaviour cannot be accommodated.

If a child’s behaviour consistently interrupts the group or prevents activities from running safely, we may need to contact parents for an early pick-up.
Please note that refunds are not possible in such cases.

Children Requiring Additional Support
We want every child to have a positive and safe experience at camp. However, our current team structure does not allow us to provide the level of individual support required for children with certain disabilities or special needs. We have two instructors supervising the group, and they unfortunately do not have the training, resources, or capacity to offer the specialized care, attention, or support that some children may require.

For this reason, we may not be able to accommodate children who need dedicated or specialized support.
We truly appreciate your understanding, and we make this decision solely to ensure the wellbeing and safety of all children in our care.

To the team

There are no mistakes here - only new ideas! Meet like-minded people, make new friends and have a great time. You can also immerse yourself in colours, develop and relax. Come along and let your creativity run free - we look forward to seeing you!

Children's studio Zurich Children's studio Basel

Just curiosity and a desire to be creative! We provide all materials, tools and aprons. If your child likes to work with certain pens or brushes, they can of course bring them with them.

No! Our courses are open to everyone - from creative beginners to young professionals. We adapt the content and pace to your child's individual ability.

By all means! Just drop us a line - we'll be happy to arrange an appointment for a first, no-obligation taster session.

Very easy: directly via our website or by sending a message to our team. We are happy to help.

Our courses are divided into different age groups, usually from the age of 5 or 6. Take a look at our programme - you'll find the right course for every age.

As a rule, no - the children are creatively immersed in the activities and are supervised by our team. A short familiarisation period with parents is of course possible for the very youngest children.

All works can be taken home after the course - or, in the case of ceramic projects, collected after firing. We will inform you as soon as they are finished!

Heavy Blossom. Petals in 3D. Spring you can almost touch.

Ever wanted to paint something so lush you feel like you could pluck it off the canvas? This is your moment.

In this semi-guided, textured acrylic session, you’ll create a dreamy cherry blossom branch in soft pink hues, set against a hazy pastel background. With modelling paste, you’ll build thick, velvety petals and a sturdy branch that practically pop out of the painting.
We’ll guide you in mixing tender tones, sculpting with your palette knife, and layering texture so the blossoms feel weighty, rich, and irresistibly touchable.

Perfect for beginners, texture lovers, and anyone who wants to bring a little springtime magic into their space — no matter the season.

✨ How PIE semi-guided events work
Ready for a painting session that gives you just the right mix of direction and freedom?
At our semi-guided events, you get a clear theme and technique to start with – think of them as your creative launchpad. From there, it’s all about what you do with it.

Our artist guides are there to show you the essentials, share tips, and keep you inspired… but the real magic happens when you dive into your own creative waters ;) Follow the guidance closely or take a playful detour – both paths are perfect.

It’s the ideal balance of support and self-expression: enough structure to feel confident, enough freedom to surprise yourself. A little deeper, a little more intentional, and always a lot of fun.

We’ll start from the ground up — literally. In 2,5 hours You’ll explore different clay types, learn how to handle and shape them, and experiment with hand-building techniques like pinching and slab work. With guidance from our instructors, you’ll bring your ideas to life, refining each curve and contour until your designs feel just right.
You will be able to do a few pieces of pendants.

Session 2: Fire, Finish & Flaunt
Few weeks later, when your pieces are fired, it’s time to add the magic. You’ll dive into jewellery assembly, learning how to pair your ceramic forms with silver findings and counter parts. Step by step, we’ll guide you through assembling and securing your pieces — ready to wear, gift, or show off with pride. This session you can book on our website:

https://paintiteasy.ch/creative-cafe-zuerich/

You will be given all the tools and parts that you need for assembly, with an introduction to these tools and you can assemble your wearables, and take them home ready to be worn.

By the end, you’ll walk away with:

🌿 A pair (or two!) of one-of-a-kind ceramic jewellery — handcrafted, glazed, and finished wearables.

💎 A new appreciation for the delicate dance between clay and jewellery design.

🔥 And maybe, a brand-new creative obsession.

Everything’s included: clay, tools, firings, glazes, pearls, metal findings — and expert guidance from ceramic artists of PIE.

This is a workshop for the curious, the creative, and anyone who loves to make something truly their own. No experience needed — just bring your hands, your ideas, and your spark.

It’s the perfect intro to ceramics: a little messy, a lot of fun, and totally satisfying. You’ll walk away with clay on your hands, colour on your plate, and a new skill (or obsession?) in the making.

🔥 After the event, we glaze and fire your piece for you.
It’ll be ready to pick up in about 4 weeks — food-safe and fabulous.

Surface Art: Sgraffito

Unveiling Hidden Depths: a PIE Ceramic Workshop

Workshop

PIE Ceramics Basel
2.5 hours

from 85.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Tickets Eventdetails

Scratch beneath the surface — and reveal something beautiful.

Sgraffito — from the Italian “to scratch” — is a decorative ceramics technique that’s all about revealing contrast, pattern, and surprise. In this inspiring 3-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to turn a simple slab of clay into a stunning ceramic plate using this ancient and captivating method.

We’ll start by rolling and shaping your plate by hand, then applying a layer of coloured slip (liquid clay). Once that’s set, the real magic begins — you’ll carve into the surface to create your own design, revealing the clay underneath in bold lines, fine textures, or whatever shapes your imagination leads you to. No drawing skills needed — just a sense of curiosity and a love of detail.

You’ll be guided every step of the way in a relaxed and welcoming studio atmosphere. From the first press of clay to the final scratch of your carving tool, you’ll explore the sgraffito process with hands-on support, plenty of encouragement, and a glass of something refreshing in hand — your choice of wine, tea, prosecco, or something non-alcoholic to sip as you shape.

After the session, we’ll take care of glazing and firing your piece. Your finished sgraffito plate will be ready for pickup in about 4 weeks. One plate is included in the price — if you’re inspired to make more, you can simply pay for extra materials on the spot.

This workshop is perfect for anyone looking to slow down, scratch beneath the surface, and uncover something beautifully their own.

✨ 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.
