Tickets Eventdetails

Spin it. Shape it. Love the wonky bits.

Ever dreamed of making your own cup 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.

No experience? No problem. You’ll leave with a piece that’s 100% yours – shaped by your hands and full of personality.

✨ 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.

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.

Chamomile in Bloom: Texture, Light & Depth
This one is gonna be a beautiful painting session dedicated to our favourite, the chamomile flower. This time, we’ll be working with textured paste and the palette knife as our second protagonist.

You will learn how to shape the simple yet iconic chamomile petals, placing them in perspective to create a real sense of depth and movement. Along the way, we’ll also explore the basics of colour mixing, focusing on achieving those vibrant, high-contrast harmonies between warm yellows and cool blues.

A tactile, expressive session where texture, light, and colour come together to bring the chamomile to life.

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.

Tickets Eventdetails

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.

Arrival: Please arrive 10 minutes early to grab your drink and settle in.
Cancellations: Tickets are transferable but non-refundable within 36 hours. You can reschedule your spot up to 72 hours before the workshop.

Tickets Eventdetails

A field in bloom, high in the mountains in May — where the air is still cool, but already carries the sweet scent of coming summer evenings.

In this watercolour painting session, we’ll capture a vast, flowing meadow filled with flowers and rich, warm green tones stretching across a mountain landscape. It’s a scene full of softness, atmosphere, and quiet movement — where light, mist, and colour gently dissolve into one another.

This is the perfect painting to explore the wet-on-wet technique, learning how to let pigments bleed, blend, and flow naturally on the paper to create that airy, luminous quality unique to watercolour. You’ll discover how to control just enough — and let go just enough — for the landscape to paint itself.

We’ll also focus on how to create the illusion of depth and perspective: how softer edges, cooler tones, and lighter washes can push forms into the distance, while richer greens and more defined brushwork bring the foreground to life. Step by step, you’ll build a sense of space that draws the eye through the field and into the mountains beyond.

The sea was already awake, moving slowly.
This is a place you return to in memory — solid, calm, built layer by layer. A reminder that not everything needs to be light or perfect to be beautiful. Some things are meant to be felt, not thinned down.

In this textured painting session, we’ll work with modelling paste to create depth, structure, and a truly tactile landscape. You’ll learn how to effortlessly blend colour into the paste itself and apply it in different ways across the canvas, building surfaces that feel almost sculptural.

We’ll explore how to mix beautiful muted yet vibrant tones inspired by a Northern European landscape — atmospheric, cool, and quietly luminous rather than Mediterranean brightness. You’ll discover how subtle colour shifts and layered texture can create mood, distance, and emotional depth, turning the surface into something you can almost step into.

✨ How PIE Ceramics Workshops Work

Our ceramics workshops are one-off sessions designed for intensive skill-sharing in a relaxed, creative atmosphere. Whether you’re just starting your journey with clay or already have some experience and want to explore a new technique, this is the perfect chance to get your hands dirty, learn something new — and follow your creativity wherever it leads.

Each workshop focuses on a specific process or form, guided by a professional ceramic artist. You’ll learn the core technique step by step, then have space to experiment, personalise, and take your piece in whatever direction feels right to you. It’s structured, supportive, and creatively wide open.

Workshops take place in our cosy, fully-equipped studios in Zürich and Basel, where everything’s set up to support your creative flow — including materials, tools, good lighting, and good vibes.

No pressure, no perfection — just the joy of discovering what you can create with your own two hands.

🎨 Marble Mania: Pour, Swirl & Play with Colour
It’s like acrylic pouring… but make it ceramic.

Get ready to pour, swirl, and create pure magic in this vibrant, hands-on marbling session! We’re diving headfirst into the wild, wonderful world of colour play — where glazes flow, patterns surprise, and no two pieces ever turn out the same.

You’ll learn how to turn liquid glaze into swirling masterpieces, using bold combos, dreamy blends, and just the right amount of messy fun. With our friendly crew to guide you, you’ll explore marbling techniques that are easy to learn, crazy satisfying, and seriously addictive.

Expect bold bursts, soft waves, and total one-of-a-kind vibes.

No stress, no pressure — just your creativity, good energy, and a ceramic piece ready to shine. ✨

One small and one medium piece is included in the class, additional pieces or update to larger size can be purchase on the spot.

✨ 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:

A soft drink or hot drink
A glass of wine, prosecco, or beer
Or our Cocktail of the Week (rotates weekly)

Want to upgrade your welcome drink? We serve a curated selection of cocktails, mocktails, smoothies and more for just CHF 5–9 more.

🍴 Feeling peckish? Our Creative Café offers a delicious à la carte menu throughout the session — featuring homemade wraps, salad bowls, finger foods, and healthy snacks — perfect for fueling your inner artist. Extra drinks are also available at regular menu prices.

Bigger than the game. Smaller than a salad bar. Totally handmade by you.

In this playful ceramic hand-building event, you’ll create your very own ceramic bowl — for cereal, snacks, soup, or just to admire and say, “Yeah, I made that.”

With step-by-step guidance from our instructor, you’ll learn how to shape, smooth, and form your bowl from scratch. There’ll be demos, tips, and lots of room to personalise — whether you go round and classic or add texture, sculptural flair, or a slightly wobbly rim (we call that charm).

🖐️ No experience? No problem. This event is beginner-friendly, stress-free, and all about discovering the joy of making something real with your hands.

🔥 After the event, we’ll glaze and fire your masterpiece. It’ll be ready for pickup in about 4 weeks — and yes, it’ll be food-safe.

✨ 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.
