Team building Southern California teams actually remember.
We come to your office, campus, or venue. Every event opens with live music and an emotional release. Teams leave connected.
The only corporate team building event that opens in song.
Before anyone picks up a brush, Tamara and Corissa perform a live musical duet together. Then one of them guides the room through the signature emotional release exercise -- a moment to let go of the week, the deadlines, and the noise.
What happens next is real. People relax. They laugh. They talk to coworkers they have never actually talked to. By the time the painting starts, the room is already different.
Meet Tamara and CorissaArt is not just an activity. It is a tool for transformation.

We work with teams across Southern California.
Marketing and Creative Agencies
Teams that already value creativity respond immediately to this format. The emotional opening lands differently with people who use their imagination every day.
Law Firms and Professional Services
High-pressure teams benefit most from the release exercise. We have seen entire rooms visibly decompress before the painting even starts.
Tech Companies and Startups
Fast-moving teams rarely slow down together. A paint party gives everyone a shared challenge with no hierarchy -- the CEO's painting looks just like everyone else's.
Country Clubs and Golf Clubs
Member events, staff appreciation, and board dinners. We work on your timeline and match the tone your venue expects.
Healthcare and Wellness Organizations
The combination of music, emotional release, and creative expression aligns naturally with wellness-focused teams and cultures.
Real Estate and Finance Teams
Results-driven teams often need the most permission to play. Once the painting starts, something shifts. Every time.

Every Paint and Sip SoCal event opens with a live musical duet performed by Tamara and Corissa, followed by a guided emotional release exercise. Most team building skips straight to the activity. We create a moment of genuine connection first. By the time the painting starts, the room is already different. Every participant also leaves with a finished painting they made themselves -- not just a memory of an afternoon.
None at all. Tamara has been teaching art since 1990 and adapts her instruction to whoever is in the room. The goal is the experience, not a perfect painting. First-timers and self-described non-artists consistently leave surprised by what they created.
Two to four weeks is the sweet spot for most corporate bookings, especially for Fridays and popular dates. If your event is coming up faster than that, reach out anyway. We do our best to make it work.
