Paint your own ceramic tiles in the artistic style of Renaissance apothecary ceramics. Draw inspiration from historical models or create your own Renaissance style.
At the beginning of the workshop, you’ll receive a brief introduction to the art and cultural history of majolica—the special ceramic painting technique of the Italian Renaissance. No prior experience is required for the workshop; beginners are especially welcome. Children may also participate in the workshop, but must be accompanied by an adult. Your finished tiles will then be glazed and fired by Wild at Art Studio and can be picked up there after two weeks.

Time: 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m., workshop by registration at 061 207 48 11, We recommend visiting the special exhibition before participating in the workshops. Museum admission and workshop fees are covered by SNSF Agora funding. If you have registered but are unable to attend, please call to cancel. There will be a waiting list.
