Tickets Eventdetails

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 Sips & Bites

Every event includes a complimentary welcome drink to get your creativity flowing. You can choose from:

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.

This isn’t about painting what’s “real” — it’s about painting what feels real to you.

Too round. Too fabulous. Just right.

Forget the rules of realism — we’re painting a plump, proudly queer bird who’s all fluff, all colour, and absolutely thriving.

In this light-hearted, joy-filled session, you’ll create your own version of our rainbow-feathered, unapologetically inflated friend, perched on a branch and just vibing. We’ll play with colour, texture, and pure personality — because this bird is not here to blend in.

No pressure, no judgment, just round little wings, big self-love energy, and maybe a hint of glitter (emotionally, if not literally).

Tickets Eventdetails

Just curious? Perfect.

This is your chance to dip a toe (well, a hand) into the world of clay — no commitment, no pressure. In this ceramic taster workshop, you’ll get a hands-on intro to basic hand-building techniques like pinching, coiling, and slab shaping. It’s a playful and beginner-friendly session designed to give you a feel for the material, the process, and the magic of making something from scratch.

You’ll create a small ceramic piece to keep — and leave with a better idea of whether this hobby is for you, or if you’re ready to dive deeper into a full course.

No prior experience needed. Just bring your curiosity — we’ll take care of the rest.

✏️ What to Expect

A relaxed, creative session guided by one of our ceramic artists
Step-by-step intro to pinch, coil, and slab techniques
Time to decorate and personalise your piece
A social, friendly space with no pressure to “get it right”
All tools, materials, and inspiration provided

🎁 What You’ll Take Home

One finished ceramic piece (we fire and glaze it for you)
The option to keep more pieces for CHF 15 each
A fun, hands-on experience — and a solid intro to the world of ceramics
A better sense of whether a full course or ongoing studio time is your next step

🧠 Who It’s For

Anyone who’s curious about ceramics but not ready to dive in (yet)
People looking for a one-time creative experience or weekend adventure
Future students who want to try before they commit to a full course
Creative folks who need a screen-free, tactile, joyfully messy couple of hours

🥂 Sip & Shape

You’ll be welcomed with a free drink of your choice — prosecco, wine, beer, tea, coffee or our Cocktail of the Week🍸
Want to upgrade your welcome drink? We serve a curated selection of cocktails, mocktails and smoothies for just CHF 5–9 more.

Need a snack?
Our Creative Café is open during the session with wraps, salad bowls, snacks & sweets.
