About Davetourje
  • Dave Tourjé has a lifetime of achievements as an
    artist, and is now featured in the LA Aboriginal
    film by Daniel Lir and Bayou Bennett.
  • He paints, draws, sculpts and even creates
    furniture.
  • Prompted by his 1998 purchase and renovation of
    the Nelbert Chouinard house in South Pasadena,
    Tourjé began researching the history of the
    Chouinard School of Art, which later evolved into
    the California Institute of the Arts.

Chouinard Foundation
  • The Chouinard Foundation was founded in 1999 by
    Bob Perine and Dave Tourje, after Tourje
    purchased the home of Nelbert Chouinard - the
    founder of the original Chouinard School of Art
    in 1921.
  • The Chouinard Foundation's purpose was to
    illuminate the legacy of Chouinard and bring it
    to public consciousness, whether by mounting
    major Museum shows, starting an art school,
    partnering with the City of LA or presenting a
    feature-length documentary film.
