About us
Slow down. Create. Reconnect.
We're a relaxed community for anyone who wants to slow down, work with clay, and create mindfully, no experience needed.
Working with clay is grounding, calming, and deeply human. In our meetups, we step away from daily stress and reconnect with presence, creativity, and community.
What to expect
- Calm, welcoming ceramics & pottery sessions
- A chance to unplug and be present
- Gentle guidance, no pressure or performance
- Shared moments of silence, conversation, and connection
Who it’s for
- Beginners and experienced creatives
- Anyone seeking stress relief or mindful creativity
- People who enjoy making, slowing down, and connecting
We bring ceramics to different spaces around Zurich, cafés, community spaces, offices, or homes. Come as you are, get your hands dirty, and leave feeling more grounded than when you arrived.
Ceramics on Wheels is more than a workshop.
It’s a small pause in the week to create, breathe, and reconnect.
