PIE Event
One-time creative fun – no pressure, just pleasure.
What we will be doing
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.
