Regular painting lessons in Switzerland at PIE

🎡 Just curious? Even better.

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!

Spin it. Shape it. Love the wonky bits.

Ever dreamed of making your own cup or bowl 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.

Because your morning coffee tastes better from something you made yourself.

In this 2-hour Shape & Fun ceramics event, you’ll create your very own hand-built ceramic cup — from a soft block of clay to a fully functional mug, tumbler, or teacup (bravery determines size, no pressure).

With the help of our instructor, you’ll learn the basics of shaping, smoothing, and personalising your cup — all in a relaxed, supportive environment. Whether you go for sleek and modern or charmingly wobbly, it’s all about making something uniquely yours.

Not sure where to start? Don’t worry — we’ve got examples to spark ideas, and plenty of guidance to help bring your cup to life.

🎨 Want to decorate it later? You’ll get a discount to join one of our painting sessions and add colour and flair to your handmade creation.
🔥 After the event, we’ll glaze and fire your cup. It’ll be ready for pickup in about 3–4 weeks.

Perfect for absolute beginners, curious creatives, and anyone who’s ever thought:
“I’d love to make something I can actually use.”
