Nelson artist died weeks after learning she had become a WOW finalist for the eighth time
Meg Latham made it her mission to complete her final WOW garment entry while knowing the leukaemia ravaging her body would eventually take her life. Just weeks before she died, she learned her efforts on the artwork had paid off - she was a finalist.
A celebration of Meg Latham’s life will be held at Founders Heritage Park Nelson, in The Granary, on Thursday, August 12 at 2pm.
