Ceramic Painting & BRUNCH: Mandala Plate
PIE Ceramics Event with Brunch
- PIE Event
- Beginner
- PIE Zürich
- 3 hours
Up to 20% discount for Members
Spin some symmetry. Paint some peace. Glaze a plate. Repeat.
In this laid-back ceramic painting session, we’re diving into the satisfying world of mandalas — bold lines, meditative patterns, and shapes that just… click. You’ll be painting directly onto a ceramic plate, using flowing lines and repetitive forms to create your own calming masterpiece.
With guidance from our lovely instructors, you’ll learn how to map out your mandala, choose colours that pop (or soothe), and use ceramic glazes to bring your vision to life. No stress, no mistakes — just the joy of flow, focus, and symmetry on a plate that’ll last forever.
Zen garden? Overrated. Mandala plate? Nailed it.
✨ How PIE Events Work
You’ll be welcomed into our cozy, colourful studio, where creativity flows as easily as the drinks. Settle in, sip something tasty, and enjoy step-by-step guidance from our lovely instructors.
And here’s the twist: we’re painting it on ceramics.
In this special ceramic painting event, we’re turning everyday plates into mini-masterpieces. Sure, you can hand-paint a plate any time in our Creative Café – but this time, you’ll create something truly next level. With guidance, techniques, and a touch of wild inspiration, your piece will go from “cute” to captivating.
Fired, glazed, and designed to last – whether it hangs on your wall or holds your favourite slice of cake.
It’s painting, but with an edge. A little cooler. A little glossier. A whole lot more permanent.
No prior experience? No problem! We provide everything:
- A chill, friendly atmosphere
- All the necessary art supplies
- Pre-prepared templates
- Step-by-step guidance from our instructors
🥐 Artsy Brunch & Brushstrokes
We kick things off with a fresh croissant and your choice of hot drink or mimosa as you arrive — a little treat to ease into the creative mood. Settle in, sip, snack, and get ready to paint your heart out!
Then it’s time to get artsy: one of our lovely instructors will guide you through a relaxed, step-by-step painting session — fun, inspiring, and totally beginner-friendly.
🍳 What’s for Brunch?
After the painting session, we invite you to enjoy our brunch buffet — freshly prepared and full of delicious options to refuel your creative self:
- Açai bowl with granola
- Avocado toast with eggs
- Peanut butter & jam
- A selection of cheeses & cold cuts
- Vegan options available
And yes — a second drink is on us! Choose another coffee, tea, or mimosa to go with your meal.
If you’re in the mood for something more, smoothies, juices, and other drinks are available à la carte from our Creative Café.
At PIE, we believe creativity pairs best with good food, good drinks, and great company.
