Casa Romantica Cultural Center and Gardens announced this week a partnership with Bear Coast Coffee that opens the coastal amphitheater and gardens to the public for a new creative experience on the first Saturday of every month called Coffee Concerts.
“We are delighted to offer Coffee Concerts in partnership with Bear Coast Coffee,” said Casa Romantica’s Executive Directive Amy Behrens. Jeff Clinard, owner of Bear Coast Coffee, said a beautiful view deserves beautiful coffee adding that coffee is the perfect partner to art and culture. “First Saturdays is be a great way to awaken the artist within.”
Experts from Bear Coast Coffee help guests find the perfect cup of coffee starting from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. Then at 11 a.m., there will be an acoustical performance in the coastal amphitheater. Guests, with coffee in-hand, can relax in the garden and enjoy music with a view of the Pacific Ocean beyond.
The first performing artist on March 7 is Sawyer Auger, a Los Angeles based musician who has played at venues throughout Southern California. With a unique mix of rock, pop and soul influences coupled with a one of a kind voice, Sawyer ignites audiences everywhere he goes. Find him on social media @SawyerAuger.
