Spin some symmetry. Paint some peace. Glaze a plate. Repeat.
In this laid-back ceramic painting session, we’re diving into the satisfying world of mandalas — bold lines, meditative patterns, and shapes that just… click. You’ll be painting directly onto a ceramic plate, using flowing lines and repetitive forms to create your own calming masterpiece.
With guidance from our lovely instructors, you’ll learn how to map out your mandala, choose colours that pop (or soothe), and use ceramic glazes to bring your vision to life. No stress, no mistakes — just the joy of flow, focus, and symmetry on a plate that’ll last forever.
Zen garden? Overrated. Mandala plate? Nailed it.
✨ 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 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!
Then it’s time to get artsy: one of our lovely instructors will guide you through a relaxed, step-by-step painting session — fun, inspiring, and totally beginner-friendly.
🍳 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.
At PIE, we believe creativity pairs best with good food, good drinks, and great company.

Surface Art: Sgraffito
Unveiling Hidden Depths: a PIE Ceramic Workshop
- Workshop
- Beginner
- PIE Zürich
- 2.5 hours
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. 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.

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!
Then it’s time to get artsy: one of our lovely instructors will guide you through a relaxed, step-by-step painting session — fun, inspiring, and totally beginner-friendly.
🍳 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.
At PIE, we believe creativity pairs best with good food, good drinks, and great company.
