Host Your Next Private Gathering at Paint & Release Co.

Looking for a unique, memorable way to celebrate or connect in Central New Jersey? Whether you are looking for deep, intentional bonding or a vibrant, creative social party, our boutique studio in Raritan, NJ (serving the Somerville area) provides the perfect backdrop.

We offer two distinct private event styles depending on your group’s energy:

🌟 Option A: The Private Paint & Release Experience

Best for: Intimate milestones, wellness retreats, deep team-bonding, and soulful celebrations.

Gather your inner circle for a private, guided somatic painting session. This is a rule-free, step-free space designed for emotional unblocking, stress relief, and genuine connection. Your group will be guided through a body-led creative process, allowing everyone to let go of perfectionism and paint what emerges.

  • The Vibe: Intimate, restorative, liberating, fun, and deeply memorable.

  • Includes: All supplies and dedicated somatic guidance.

🎨 Option B: The Private Art Bar Takeover

Best for: Bachelorette parties, birthdays, casual corporate outings, and vibrant social mixing.

Now booking for the season, you can rent out our Open Studio & Art Bar for an exclusive creative party. Instead of a single guided class, your guests can choose from a custom menu of self-guided craft projects, play with premium studio materials, and mingle freely in a warm, artistic community atmosphere.

  • The Vibe: High-energy, celebratory, social, and completely customizable.

  • Includes: Full access to the Art Bar setup, curated project menus, and materials for every guest.
