F.A.Q

🎨 What is a ceramic painting workshop?

A ceramic painting workshop is a friendly and creative place where anyone can come and paint their own ceramics: mugs, plates, bowls, vases… All materials are provided (paints, brushes, stencils).
After decorating, we glaze and fire your piece in our professional kiln to make it unique, durable, and vibrant.

A session lasts an average of 2 hours, but you can stay a little longer if you haven’t finished (subject to table availability).

💰 How much does it cost?

The price depends on the piece you choose. On average:

You should expect to pay CHF 30 for the session, plus the price of the piece you choose, which ranges from CHF 8 to CHF 45 per piece (glazing and firing included).
