About

I am Treyden Hesch. I am a lifelong multimedia artist, most prominently in ceramics and painting. I have a lifelong dedication to community service, especially through organizations like Rotary of which I plan to become an inducted member. These two passions often come together in my pursuit of creating the arts community in Bremerton, Washington that I wish I had growing up.
I will graduate from Bremerton High School in 2025 and attend Olympic College to receive my associates degree, while also dedicating my time to contributing to the Bremerton Arts District. I will do this through expanding the ceramics program at the Bremerton YMCA, continuing to play a leading role in the Bremerton Youth Art Hive to help up-and-coming artists be featured in community galleries, and by serving a role on the Bremerton Arts Council after community college.
