A bold, textured bird portrait with creamy layers, colour, and character.

This bird isn’t just perched — it’s posing.


In this vibrant painting session, we’re giving the great tit a full-on glamour moment: thick, sculpted strokes, glossy feathers you can almost touch, and a background in unapologetic pink.

You’ll work with modelling paste and rich acrylics to build a portrait that’s part painting, part sculpture — playing with light, shadow, and feather detail until your bird is brimming with personality.

It’s tactile, it’s joyful, and it’s a little bit fabulous.

Textures of Nature: The Big Wave

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

  • PIE Event
  • Beginner
  • PIE Basel
  • 2.5 hours
from 79.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Crash. Curl. Colour. A wave comes alive on canvas.

In this semi-guided textured session, you’ll ride the swell — a giant wave rising from the sea, ready to tumble and curl. Using modelling paste and paint, you’ll build layers of frothy foam, dynamic water movement, and the energy of the ocean captured in bold, sculpted strokes. Think drama, texture, and a playful sense of motion in every crest and curl.

No experience needed — just a love for texture, colour, and a bit of creative adventure. You’ll leave with a tactile, vibrant seascape that’s bursting with energy, movement, and watery wonder.


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.

Shimmer. Glide. Set sail.

Soft strokes. Gentle breeze. Pink perfection in motion.

Step into a world where pink blooms float on silver light, and your paintbrush moves like a breeze across the canvas. This dreamy floral scene is all about delicate motion — layered neutrals, elegant highlights, and blossoms that feel like they’re swaying in slow motion.

We’ll guide you through a soothing, brushstroke-by-brushstroke painting session where calm meets colour. Expect a palette of earthy tones, silvery glow, and of course, that signature splash of pink — like nature dressed up for a Sunday brunch.

No stress, no rush. Just soft vibes, smooth blends, and a piece that’s as serene as it is striking. By the end, you’ll have a floral painting that’s all elegance with just enough whimsy to hang proudly.

Pouring Acrylics (Tree Ring, Flip Cup)

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Basel
  • 3 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 3-hour workshop, you’ll learn two of the most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Tree Ring and Flip Cup.

We’ll liquefy the paint, then let gravity, colour, and a bit of messy magic do the rest. With every tilt of the canvas, new patterns emerge — swirls, cells, waves, and very cool accidents.

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 the Workshop Works
Think of a Paint It Easy event — but with more time, more technique, and more creative depth. Our workshops are all about learning something new and meaningful while still enjoying the relaxed, feel-good PIE vibe.

Each workshop is guided by a professional artist and focuses on a specific creative technique, style, or material. Whether you’re trying it for the first time or want to deepen existing skills, you’ll get personal guidance, hands-on support, and time to really explore the process.

Most workshops take place in our beautiful, cosy studios in Zürich or Basel — full of colour, creativity, and a welcoming atmosphere. From time to time, we also host them at inspiring partner venues or outdoors in the sunny season.

No stress, no pressure — just a great setting to experiment, learn something new, and create something truly yours.

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.


🥂 A Toast to Creativity*
We kick off every workshop with a complimentary welcome drink — the perfect way to settle in, connect with fellow creatives, and get inspired. Choose from:
• A soft drink or hot drink
• A glass of wine, prosecco, or beer
• Or our rotating Cocktail of the Week

Want to treat yourself? Upgrade to one of our signature cocktails, mocktails, smoothies, or special drinks for just CHF 5–9.

🍴 Hungry for more?*

This is your chance to dip a toe (or both hands!) into the wild, whirling world of the pottery wheel — no pressure, no experience needed. In this wheel-throwing taster workshop, you’ll learn how to center, pull, and shape clay like a true ceramic boss. It’s messy, magical, and way more satisfying than your average Saturday scroll session.

You’ll get hands-on with the basics of wheel-throwing — and walk away with at least one piece to call your own. Plus, you’ll leave knowing whether this hobby is a fling or the beginning of a full-blown love affair.

No experience necessary. Just bring your curiosity — we’ll handle the spin cycle.

✏️ What to Expect

  • A chill, beginner-friendly session led by our wheel-throwing wizards
  • Step-by-step intro to centering, pulling, and shaping on the wheel
  • Time to finesse your form and feel the clay do its thing
  • A playful, supportive vibe where mistakes are just part of the fun
  • All tools, clay, and good energy provided

🎁 What You’ll Take Home

  • One fired & glazed ceramic piece (included in the price — we’ll handle the rest)
  • The option to keep more pieces for CHF 15 each
  • The pure joy of creating something from spinning mud
  • A solid intro to wheel-throwing, and whether a full course is your next step

🧠 Who It’s For

  • Total newbies who’ve always wanted to try “that Ghost movie thing”
  • Hands-on creatives craving a screen-free adventure
  • Friends, dates, teams — anyone up for a shared spin
  • Future potters testing the waters before diving into a full course


📦 A Few More Things to Know

  • No need to bring anything – just wear something comfy you don’t mind getting a bit clay-kissed
  • Please arrive 10–15 minutes early to settle in
  • Firing and glazing takes 4 weeks – we’ll let you know when your piece is ready
  • Tickets are transferable, but non-refundable within 36 hours
  • If you fall in love with wheel-throwing (warning: you might), we’ve got full courses and studio classes waiting for you!

Candle Glow: Ceramic Candle Holder

from 85.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

🕯️ Glow & Flow – shape your own candle light

There’s something magical about candlelight — soft, flickering, and full of calm. And when the glow shines through a piece you’ve made with your own hands, it feels even warmer.

In this cosy 2.5-hour workshop, you’ll roll up your sleeves and dive into the soothing world of clay, crafting your very own ceramic candle holder. Whether you prefer elegant simplicity or playful patterns, you’ll shape a piece that turns every evening into a quiet little ritual.

We’ll guide you step by step — from forming and texturing the clay to decorating your surface with underglaze colours and cut-out designs. You’ll learn hand-building techniques like pinching or slab work, creating a piece that’s both functional and full of personality.

Once fired and glazed, your candle holder will be ready to fill your home with warmth, shadow, and handmade charm.

You’ll walk away with:
🌿 A unique ceramic candle holder — hand-shaped, decorated, and fired for you.
💎 A relaxing experience with clay and a new creative skill to light up your home.
🔥 And maybe — a new passion for slow, mindful making.

Everything’s included: clay, tools, glazes, firings, and expert guidance from the ceramic artists of PIE.

No experience needed — just come as you are, ready to create, unwind, and make something that glows with a little of your own light.

After the event, we’ll glaze and fire your piece. It’ll be ready to pick up in about 4 weeks — your own little ceramic time capsule, made with love.


✨ 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.

  • Personal guidance from an experienced ceramic instructor
  • One piece included for firing and glazing (extras optional for a small fee)
