If you are listing an AWB Painting
In addition to donations, you can list painting produced in the MnemeTherapy sessions, if you are
currently receiving services. If you are not receiving services, the MnemeTherapist from your local
chapter can come and volunteer 2 hours at no charge. 3-4 paintings can be produced during that
time and you can turn them back into services.
If there isn't a MnemeTherapist in your area, you can raise a team to bring one to your area for a
week, then use the paintings on the auction to bring them back again. Email here to find a traveling
MnemeTherapist awbf@bellsouth.net
Here are the rules you need to follow to list a painting
- MAKE SURE THE FAMILY MEMBER HAS SIGNED THE ARTIST'S RELEASE BEFORE THE
CLIENT PAINTS. (see below)

the resident's council and enjoys canasta and outings with his friends.
