Great loss as heritage building burns

on 31 Jul 2019

Tracey asks

Hi Sue

Are you the same Sue Cooke who is the wonderful artist in Whanganui?

If so I hope that none of your artwork was involved in this dreadful fire.

I wish you and Bryce all the best in rebuilding what you have lost

Regards

Tracey

Hi Tracey, Yes I am the artist, I was personally very lucky that none of my artwork was in the building. I was due to move some surplus materials and a large project from 2013 into the building in the near future. Bryce and I lost the building of course and numerous fittings . It is the tenants we really feel for as none of them were insured. Kind Regards Sue
