Action Painting, Neon Edition

Feel First, Paint Second: A PIE Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
  • 2,5 hours
from 60.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

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.

All you need to bring is your good vibes and curiosity! We’ll take care of the rest — starting with a complimentary welcome drink 🥂 to spark your creativity.

Quiet Power

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

  • PIE Event
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
  • 2.5 hours
from 75.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Ready to escape into a landscape of quiet power?
In this session, you’ll create a stunning mountain scene in rich earth tones, where rugged textures meet snowy peaks and every layer tells part of the story.

We’ll move through warm, natural hues, blending and building colours that feel grounded and alive. You`ll be mixing your own version of earth shades and explore thick, tactile layers with modelling paste to shape the landscape, then bring it all together by carving in those striking snowy peaks with our favourite tool — the palette knife.

This is all about texture, contrast, and that satisfying moment when your painting starts to feel like something you could step right into. Let your strokes be bold, your layers imperfect, and your mountains rise in their own way.



✨ How PIE Semi-Guided Workshops Run
You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink and settle into your spot at the table where the magic will happen. 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 — 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.

Then the fun really begins. Our instructors 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.

At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — your finished piece, great vibes.

Heavy Blossom. Petals in 3D. Spring you can almost touch.

Float, hide, and spot the fluff.
A peaceful pond, soft water lilies… and a tiny black cat sneaking through the scene.
In this feel-good painting session, we take a Monet-inspired setting and add a playful twist — capturing the calm beauty of water, layered lily pads, and that curious little swimmer making its way through. It’s all about expressive brushstrokes, fresh greens, and getting those colours just right so the whole scene feels alive.

And then there’s the star of the show: that little black fluff. We’ll help you bring out the charm in those bright, curious eyes, while also exploring how reflections dance on the water’s surface.
Soft, dreamy, and just a little bit cheeky — this one’s a joy from start to finish.

✨ How PIE Paint & Brunch Workshops Run
You arrive at our Studio at Wallstrasse 14 and ease into the experience with a curated brunch — a moment to settle in, connect, and get into the right mood before painting.

After brunch, the creative part of the experience begins. Your instructor takes the stage, giving you a quick, easy intro to the materials and techniques, before leading you step by step into the painting process with plenty of room to play, experiment, and make it your own. No pressure — just space to unwind, explore, and enjoy the moment.

At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — your finished piece, great vibes.

No prior experience? No problem! We provide everything:

  • A chill, friendly atmosphere
  • All the necessary art supplies

  • Step-by-step guidance from our instructors

All you need to bring is your good vibes and curiosity— we’ll take care of the rest ;)

Pouring Acrylics (Dutch Pour, Kiss Pour)

Pour. Tilt. Wow – A PIE Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Zürich
  • 2,5 hours
from 110.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

A workshop where the chaos is the point.
Get ready to pour and blow! In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn two of the more advanced and most satisfying acrylic pouring techniques: Dutch Pour & Kiss Pour. (Yes, is the one where you`ll use a blowdryer to move the paint accross the surface!)

Acrylic pouring is all about letting the paint do its thing.  It’s unpredictable, a little messy, and incredibly satisfying.
Instead of brushes, you’ll work with fluid acrylics, tilting, layering, and guiding the movement across your canvas to create organic patterns, soft blends, and those signature “cells” that make every piece feel alive.

You’ll combine colours in a way that creates contrast and harmony at the same time, learning how different densities interact and how small shifts in movement can completely transform the result. From smooth, flowing gradients to bold, marbled effects — no two pours ever turn out the same.

You’ll create 3 unique artworks on 30 × 30 cm canvases, and yes:
It’ll look like you totally meant to do that.



✨ How PIE Pouring Workshops Runs
Acrylic Pouring is one of the most mesmerising – and yes, also one of the messiest – ways to paint. If you’ve ever fallen into the endless stream of pouring videos online, you’ll know how unpredictable (and sometimes frustrating) it can be to figure it out on your own.

You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink, and settle in at your table — where the magic begins. We start on time, so make sure you’re ready to dive in. Your instructor gives you an in-depth introduction to the pouring materials and techniques — nothing overwhelming, just enough to get you comfortable and inspired. They’ll also demonstrate the process step by step in real time, sharing the essential know-how so you can skip the long trial-and-error phase. You’ll learn how to mix your paints to the right consistency, control the flow, and use different pouring techniques without creating unnecessary chaos.

The goal isn’t to take away the magic of experimentation, but to give you a shortcut to the satisfying part — where colours flow, react, and create beautiful, organic patterns. Less guesswork, less mess, and more time to actually enjoy this fluid, almost hypnotic way of painting.

It’s one of those workshops where it’s very hard to get it “wrong.” Almost anything you do will lead to interesting and beautiful results, which makes it especially rewarding and forgiving. Because of this, it’s perfect for complete beginners who have never worked with acrylic paint before.

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. All you need to bring is your good vibes and curiosity! We’ll take care of the rest — starting with a complimentary welcome drink 🥂 to spark your creativity.

Your ticket includes three 30 x 30 cm canvases.

Action Painting, Neon Edition

Feel First, Paint Second: A PIE Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
  • 2,5 hours
from 60.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

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.

All you need to bring is your good vibes and curiosity! We’ll take care of the rest — starting with a complimentary welcome drink 🥂 to spark your creativity.

Quiet Power

Paint & Sip – PIE Guided Painting Event

  • PIE Event
  • Beginner
  • PIE Action Painting Studio Basel
  • 2.5 hours
from 75.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Ready to escape into a landscape of quiet power?
In this session, you’ll create a stunning mountain scene in rich earth tones, where rugged textures meet snowy peaks and every layer tells part of the story.

We’ll move through warm, natural hues, blending and building colours that feel grounded and alive. You`ll be mixing your own version of earth shades and explore thick, tactile layers with modelling paste to shape the landscape, then bring it all together by carving in those striking snowy peaks with our favourite tool — the palette knife.

This is all about texture, contrast, and that satisfying moment when your painting starts to feel like something you could step right into. Let your strokes be bold, your layers imperfect, and your mountains rise in their own way.



✨ How PIE Semi-Guided Workshops Run
You arrive, take a breath, pick your welcome drink and settle into your spot at the table where the magic will happen. 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 — 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.

Then the fun really begins. Our instructors 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.

At the end, we bring everyone together for a group photo — your finished piece, great vibes.

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.

Surface Art: Sgraffito

Unveiling Hidden Depths: a PIE Ceramic Workshop

  • Workshop
  • Beginner
  • PIE Ceramics Basel
  • 2.5 hours
from 95.– CHF

Up to 20% discount for Members

Scratch beneath the surface — and reveal something beautiful.

Sgraffito — from the Italian “to scratch” — is a decorative ceramics technique that’s all about revealing contrast, pattern, and surprise. In this inspiring 3-hour workshop, you’ll learn how to turn a simple slab of clay into a stunning ceramic plate using this ancient and captivating method.

We’ll start by rolling and shaping your plate by hand, then applying a layer of coloured slip (liquid clay). Once that’s set, the real magic begins — you’ll carve into the surface to create your own design, revealing the clay underneath in bold lines, fine textures, or whatever shapes your imagination leads you to. No drawing skills needed — just a sense of curiosity and a love of detail.

You’ll be guided every step of the way in a relaxed and welcoming studio atmosphere. From the first press of clay to the final scratch of your carving tool, you’ll explore the sgraffito process with hands-on support, plenty of encouragement, and a glass of something refreshing in hand — your choice of wine, tea, prosecco, or something non-alcoholic to sip as you shape.

After the session, we’ll take care of glazing and firing your piece. Your finished sgraffito plate will be ready for pickup in about 4 weeks. One plate is included in the price — if you’re inspired to make more, you can simply pay for extra materials on the spot.

This workshop is perfect for anyone looking to 
slow down, scratch beneath the surface, and uncover something beautifully their own.

✨ How PIE Ceramics Workshops Work

Our ceramics workshops are one-off sessions designed for intensive skill-sharing in a relaxed, creative atmosphere.

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.

from 95.– CHF

✨ Design & Dangle – make it, wear it, love it

Let’s face it: a statement piece of jewellery can turn an ordinary day into something special. And when they’re handmade by you — from raw clay to lively wearables — they don’t just accessorize, they tell a story.

Over two cosy, creative sessions, you’ll get your hands (and maybe your sleeves) into the world of ceramic jewellery. From soft slabs of clay to the final glint of a polished pearl, you’ll craft pendants and necklaces that are uniquely, beautifully yours.

Session 1: Shape Your Style
We’ll start from the ground up — literally. In 2,5 hours You’ll explore different clay types, learn how to handle and shape them, and experiment with hand-building techniques like pinching and slab work. With guidance from our instructors, you’ll bring your ideas to life, refining each curve and contour until your designs feel just right.

Session 2: Fire, Finish & Flaunt
Two weeks later, when your pieces are fired, it’s time to add the magic. You’ll dive into jewellery assembly, learning how to pair your ceramic forms with metal findings and luminous pearls. Step by step, we’ll guide you through assembling and securing your pieces — ready to wear, gift, or show off with pride. This session is only 1 hour, giving you all the tools and parts that you need for assembly.

By the end, you’ll walk away with:

🌿 A pair (or two!) of one-of-a-kind ceramic jewellery — handcrafted, glazed, and finished wearables.

💎 A new appreciation for the delicate dance between clay and jewellery design.

🔥 And maybe, a brand-new creative obsession.

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.
