Paint & BRUNCH: Harvest Glow

PIE Guided Painting Event with Brunch

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Creative Café Zürich
  • 3 Hours
from 105.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Where the sun sets slow and the brushstrokes flow.
Step into the warm stillness of a countryside evening — haystacks catching the last light, peachy skies glowing overhead. Inspired by Monet’s iconic haystack series (but with your own flair), this guided painting is all about colour, mood, and letting the light do the talking.

You’ll explore impressionist techniques like expressive brushwork, warm layering, and soft transitions that make your canvas feel just like a late summer sigh.
Whether you’re dreaming of rural France or just love a good golden hour, this session will have you painting the peace you wish you lived in.
No cows, no pitchforks — just pure painterly calm. 🌾🖌️☁️

✨ How PIE Paint & Brunch Workshops Run
You arrive at Bederstrasse 94 and ease into the experience with a curated brunch — a moment to settle in, connect, and get into the right mood before painting.

After brunch, the creative part of the experience begins. Your instructor takes the stage, giving you a quick, easy intro to the materials and techniques, before leading you step by step into the painting process with plenty of room to play, experiment, and make it your own. No pressure — just space to unwind, explore, and enjoy the moment.

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

  • A chill, friendly atmosphere
  • All the necessary art supplies

Pouring Acrylics (Tree Ring & Flip Cup)

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Zürich
  • 2,5 Hours
from 110.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

A workshop where the chaos is the point.
Get ready to tilt, swirl, flip, and pour! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn two of the most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Tree Ring and Flip Cup.

Acrylic pouring is all about letting the paint do its thing.  It’s unpredictable, a little messy, and incredibly satisfying.
Instead of brushes, you’ll work with fluid acrylics, tilting, layering, and guiding the movement across your canvas to create organic patterns, soft blends, and those signature “cells” that make every piece feel alive.

You’ll combine colours in a way that creates contrast and harmony at the same time, learning how different densities interact and how small shifts in movement can completely transform the result. From smooth, flowing gradients to bold, marbled effects — no two pours ever turn out the same.

You’ll create 3 unique artworks on 30 × 30 cm canvases, and yes:
It’ll look like you totally meant to do that.
Perfect for beginners, mess-lovers, abstract enthusiasts, and anyone who secretly wants to fling paint around without judgement.



✨ How PIE Pouring Workshops Runs
Acrylic Pouring is one of the most mesmerising – and yes, also one of the messiest – ways to paint. If you’ve ever fallen into the endless stream of pouring videos online, you’ll know how unpredictable (and sometimes frustrating) it can be to figure it out on your own.

You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink, and settle in at your table — where the magic begins. We start on time, so make sure you’re ready to dive in. Your instructor gives you an in-depth introduction to the pouring materials and techniques — nothing overwhelming, just enough to get you comfortable and inspired. They’ll also demonstrate the process step by step in real time, sharing the essential know-how so you can skip the long trial-and-error phase. You’ll learn how to mix your paints to the right consistency, control the flow, and use different pouring techniques without creating unnecessary chaos.

The goal isn’t to take away the magic of experimentation, but to give you a shortcut to the satisfying part — where colours flow, react, and create beautiful, organic patterns. Less guesswork, less mess, and more time to actually enjoy this fluid, almost hypnotic way of painting.

It’s one of those workshops where it’s very hard to get it “wrong.” Almost anything you do will lead to interesting and beautiful results, which makes it especially rewarding and forgiving. Because of this, it’s perfect for complete beginners who have never worked with acrylic paint before.

We provide everything you need:

  • A warm and friendly learning environment
  • All necessary materials and tools
  • A mix of demonstration & individual guidance
  • Artistic freedom — everyone interprets the technique their own way

Whether you’re a motivated beginner or a curious creative, this is the space to dive deeper, discover new methods, and leave with a skill that sticks. 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.

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.

Everything, Everywhere, All At Once

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Creative Café Zürich
  • 2.5 hours
from 80.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

A wild abstract painting session full of colour, chaos, and satisfying texture.
Who needs brushes when you’ve got a spatula, a mountain of modelling paste, and a whole mood to express?
In this bold, all-in painting session, you’ll layer, swipe, and sculpt your way into pure colour play — no plan, no pressure, just bold marks and thick textures that practically stand off the canvas.

We’ll work point by point, swipe by swipe, building up vibrant patterns and punchy colour fields that shift as you move. It’s a little pointillist, a little sculptural, and totally freeing.
Expect music, mess, and moments of accidental brilliance. This one’s for anyone who’s ever wanted to stop thinking and just create.
More colour. More texture. More joy.
Bring the energy — we’ve got the paste.

Then the fun really begins. Our instructors 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.

Swoosh. Twist. Take flight.
Time to throw perfection out the window and lean into the mess. In this semi-guided abstract session, we’re mixing bold colours, big moves. 

In this painting session, we dive into pure movement. A single sweeping gesture unfurls across a soft gradient sky — a ribbon of lilac, coral, and deep violet dancing weightlessly in the air. The stroke feels alive, bursting with momentum, texture, and effortless grace.
No pressure, no rules — just color, flow, and instinct. You’ll create a piece that vibrates with energy yet feels calm at its core, a modern echo of motion frozen in the sweetest instant.

Action Painting, Neon Edition

Feel First, Paint Second: A PIE Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Zürich
  • 2,5 hours
from 60.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

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.

from 70.– CHF

Bright mountains, a shimmering lake, and light that feels almost alive.
Step into a radiant alpine world where the air is crystal clear and colours glow with a quiet, powerful intensity. Inspired by the luminous spirit and rhythmic compositions of Ferdinand Hodler, we’ll step into his footsteps and explore how to build a landscape through expressive brushwork and layered painting.

In this session, you’ll learn how to create depth and perspective in a landscape — how distant peaks, water, and sky can unfold through colour, contrast, and structure. We’ll explore how to bring dynamic, energetic detail into the brushwork while still holding the whole composition together as a unified, harmonious scene.

We’ll guide you through shimmering water, luminous layering techniques, and the gentle geometry of alpine peaks. You bring your curiosity and calm focus — and a willingness to enter a landscape that feels slightly brighter, more alive, and more structured than reality itself.

Soft petals, bold texture, and paint you can almost feel.
Step into the tactile world of textured acrylic painting, where a floral bouquet becomes something you build, shape, and sculpt. Using acrylic paint and modelling paste, we’ll focus on creating rich, dimensional forms that lift off the canvas.

You’ll learn how to mix the paste to the right consistency — smooth, workable, and easy to control — and how to apply it in layers to create depth and structure. We’ll explore how to form petals, add movement, and bring dynamic texture into your brushwork while keeping the composition balanced.
No flat surfaces — just texture, rhythm, and a painting that feels as alive as it looks.

Swimming Jewels

Paint & Sip – PIE Watercolor Painting Event

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Classroom Zürich
  • 2.5 hours
from 70.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Two fish, one pond, and a world of flowing colour.
In this playful watercolour session, we dive into a serene pond scene featuring two beautifully loose, colourful white fish gliding between water lilies, floating pads, and delicate blossoms. It’s all about movement, softness, and letting the water do part of the work for you.

This piece is perfect for exploring the wet-on-wet technique — watching pigments bloom, blend, and surprise you as they spread across the paper. You’ll learn how to control (and sometimes release control of) your washes, creating different levels of pigment intensity to suggest depth, light, and transparency in the water.

Alongside the fluidity, we’ll also gently introduce selective detail — knowing when to let edges dissolve and when a few thoughtful marks can bring a fish, a petal, or a lily pad into focus.
It’s a balance of spontaneity and intention: soft washes, flowing colour, and just enough detail to guide the eye through a calm, living pond scene.

Pouring Acrylics (Tree Ring & Flip Cup)

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Zürich
  • 2,5 Hours
from 110.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

A workshop where the chaos is the point.
Get ready to tilt, swirl, flip, and pour! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn two of the most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Tree Ring and Flip Cup.

Acrylic pouring is all about letting the paint do its thing.  It’s unpredictable, a little messy, and incredibly satisfying.
Instead of brushes, you’ll work with fluid acrylics, tilting, layering, and guiding the movement across your canvas to create organic patterns, soft blends, and those signature “cells” that make every piece feel alive.

You’ll combine colours in a way that creates contrast and harmony at the same time, learning how different densities interact and how small shifts in movement can completely transform the result. From smooth, flowing gradients to bold, marbled effects — no two pours ever turn out the same.

You’ll create 3 unique artworks on 30 × 30 cm canvases, and yes:
It’ll look like you totally meant to do that.
Perfect for beginners, mess-lovers, abstract enthusiasts, and anyone who secretly wants to fling paint around without judgement.



✨ How PIE Pouring Workshops Runs
Acrylic Pouring is one of the most mesmerising – and yes, also one of the messiest – ways to paint. If you’ve ever fallen into the endless stream of pouring videos online, you’ll know how unpredictable (and sometimes frustrating) it can be to figure it out on your own.

You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink, and settle in at your table — where the magic begins. We start on time, so make sure you’re ready to dive in. Your instructor gives you an in-depth introduction to the pouring materials and techniques — nothing overwhelming, just enough to get you comfortable and inspired. They’ll also demonstrate the process step by step in real time, sharing the essential know-how so you can skip the long trial-and-error phase. You’ll learn how to mix your paints to the right consistency, control the flow, and use different pouring techniques without creating unnecessary chaos.

The goal isn’t to take away the magic of experimentation, but to give you a shortcut to the satisfying part — where colours flow, react, and create beautiful, organic patterns. Less guesswork, less mess, and more time to actually enjoy this fluid, almost hypnotic way of painting.

It’s one of those workshops where it’s very hard to get it “wrong.” Almost anything you do will lead to interesting and beautiful results, which makes it especially rewarding and forgiving. Because of this, it’s perfect for complete beginners who have never worked with acrylic paint before.

We provide everything you need:

  • A warm and friendly learning environment
  • All necessary materials and tools
  • A mix of demonstration & individual guidance
  • Artistic freedom — everyone interprets the technique their own way

Whether you’re a motivated beginner or a curious creative, this is the space to dive deeper, discover new methods, and leave with a skill that sticks. 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.

See beyond the flower — and turn it into pure colour and feeling.
In this oil painting workshop, we zoom in on a red parrot flower, inspired by Georgia O’Keeffe’s iconic way of transforming flowers into bold, enlarged worlds of colour and form - sensual, expressive, and almost abstract.

The focus of this session is on colour depth and emotional expression. You’ll work with a rich spectrum of red tones, learning how to mix, layer, and refine colour to create vibrant variation and subtle shifts in hue. We’ll also explore blending techniques, soft transitions, and how to smooth edges to create a flowing, almost dreamlike composition.

This is a deeply sensory painting experience — elegant, expressive, and open. While it carries a soft, feminine energy, it is absolutely for everyone. All genders are warmly welcome to create their own interpretation of this iconic, O’Keeffe-inspired floral world.

You’ll leave with a striking, close-up floral masterpiece that feels both powerful and poetic — a study in colour, emotion, and presence.

Sip, swirl, and let it shimmer — this time in oil.
Two cocktails clinking in the glow of summer — olives, cherries, citrus slices, and colours that feel like golden hour captured in glass. In this oil painting session, we take a very similar playful and elegant subject, but explore it through the richness and depth of oils, building luminous layers and soft transitions that bring the scene to life.

You’ll learn how to create transparent effects in glass using oil techniques — how to suggest liquid, reflection, and refraction without over-defining every detail. We’ll also explore how to build that signature shiny, glittering surface of a cocktail glass, where light breaks, bends, and sparkles across curves and edges.

Through layering, blending, and controlled brushwork, you’ll develop soft reflections and subtle colour shifts that make the glasses feel almost tangible. It’s all about capturing that balance between clarity and atmosphere — letting the paint stay fluid, luminous, and alive.
Bright, summery, and effortlessly chic — a glowing cocktail moment, reimagined in oils. 🍸

Spin it. Shape it. Love the wonky bits.

Ever dreamed of making your own cup or bowl on the pottery wheel? This is your moment to try – no pressure, no perfection, just you, the clay, and the magic of Wabi-Sabi.

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.

Vessels with 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.

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

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.

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.

It’s structured, supportive, and creatively wide open.

Surface Art: Sgraffito

Unveiling Hidden Depths: a PIE Ceramic Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Ceramics Zürich
  • 2.5 hours
from 95.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

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.
