  • Casa Romantica provides a rich selection of performances, exhibitions, lectures, workshops & tours year-round to people of all ages. As south Orange Countys major cultural institution, Casa Romantica has developed a reputation for wide-ranging cultural programming that brings international talent to San Clemente.

We lost our beautiful ocean terrace and 4 of our 10 major gardens, within those areas we lost over 400 plants some of which were unique varieties or historic rare plants that have been with the home since 1927.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
