David Torosian and P. J. Freeman and Scholarship

The P.J. Freeman and David Torosian Scholarships are given in fond memory of these artists.

P.J. attended classes at OCC and was a gifted artist. She also freely gave of her time to the OCC Art Gallery and various children’s organizations throughout Orange County.

David’s unique art, shown in his 1993 OCC Art Gallery exhibition, made lasting impressions on the students, faculty and the community at large.

P.J. and David touched everyone they met in a most awe-inspiring and positive way. Their spirits have moved on to new adventures; they will always be alive with us in our hearts and in the beautiful world they left behind through their art. We love you P.J. and David.

The funds for the scholarships are raised at an annual lecture given by Professor Vallera-Rickerson. This lecture is strongly supported by the students and faculty at Orange Coast College and the community.
