Urban sketching courses - creative and personalised

A bold, candy-coated painting session full of pink, gloss, and sweet satisfaction.

Two lollipops. One shade of pink? Never.

In this juicy painting session, we’re keeping it simple — and stunning. Two round, glossy lollipops set against a pink backdrop, brought to life with smooth gradients, sharp highlights, and just the right amount of attitude.

You’ll work with tone-on-tone pinks, learn how to build that shiny surface glow, and play with contrast to make your sweet shapes pop. It’s a masterclass in minimalism — and a total colour crush.

Soft, sticky, satisfying. This one’s all sugar, no swirl.

Ready to paint your way into a lavender-scented daydream? This watercolor session takes you to the heart of Provence, where endless rows of violet blooms roll across the hills and the air smells like calm.

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).

Shape, scrape, and sculpt your way to bold abstract art.

Ready to swap your paintbrush for a palette knife? In this hands-on workshop, you’ll explore the satisfying world of textured geometric art, using Plaster of Paris and modelling paste to create bold, raised patterns that pop off the canvas.

You’ll sculpt shapes, lines, and forms using a variety of tools — think palette knives, scrapers, combs and your own hands (yes, really). Whether you go minimalist, maximalist, or somewhere in between, you’ll end up with a piece that’s as tactile as it is striking.

Two Ways to Finish:

👉 Option 1: Paint right away. You’ll apply less texture so it has time to dry, and jump straight into colour harmonisation during the session.
👉 Option 2: Focus fully on sculpting, then come back to the Creative Café on your own time to finish the painting part — no pressure, no rush, just good vibes and coffee.

You’ll Learn:

• How to build and layer textures using Plaster of Paris & modelling paste
  
• Tool techniques for clean lines, raised shapes & satisfying surfaces
  
• Colour strategies to complement and enhance your design
  
• Drying tips & how to finish or seal your work at home (if needed)

✨ 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?

Our Creative Café offers a tasty à la carte menu during the session — featuring wraps, bowls, finger foods, and healthy snacks to keep your energy (and creativity) up. Additional drinks can be ordered at regular menu prices.

🎉 New Location! PIE Ceramics Basel – Opening Sept 1 at Spalenring 103 🎉

Let your brush wander. Let the colours bloom.

Inspired by the romantic, nature-rich world of Morris Williams, this laid-back painting session celebrates the quiet strength and timeless beauty of flowers — especially the bold, brilliant marigold.

In this hands-on ceramic painting event, you’ll create your own floral scene on a ceramic plate using layered glazes, free-flowing brushwork, and a splash of personal flair. Think poppies, petals, patterns — or your own dreamy twist.

No experience? No worries. We’ll guide you step by step, while still leaving space for you to experiment, loosen up, and find your own rhythm.

Go bold with reds, soft with pastels, or wild with colour — your plate is yours to play with.

And yes, it’s fully usable and ready to shine on your wall, shelf, or breakfast table.
No stress, no rules. Just flowers, flow, and a little bit of magic.

✨ 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.

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!

🍳 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.

In this relaxed 2-hour event, you’ll get your hands into clay and create your own hand-built ceramic plate, tray or dish— complete with texture, colour, and all the personality you want to give it. Whether you’re going bold and bright or soft and simple, we’ll show you the way and cheer you on while you do it.

No experience? No problem.
We’ll guide you through each step — from rolling and shaping to painting your piece with vibrant underglaze coloursright on the spot.

It’s the perfect intro to ceramics: a little messy, a lot of fun, and totally satisfying. You’ll walk away with clay on your hands, colour on your plate, and a new skill (or obsession?) in the making.

🔥 After the event, we glaze and fire your piece for you.
It’ll be ready to pick up in about 4 weeks — food-safe and fabulous.

✨ 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.

✨ 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.
