The HK House of Peers was pleased to announce this wonderful unframed oil painting on canvas, by British figurative artist Evelyn Williams, titled New Baby. The painting measures 10" x 12", with the canvas stretched over a wood frame. The painting and a coffee table book—Evelyn Williams Works and Words, filled with more of the artists' work, have been donated by Harmony Kingdom's Lisa Yashon and Noel Wiggins. The painting and book, as a package, are valued at $3,000 and was raffled to benefit our national charity—NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Illness).

With the participants help, NAMI will continue its work as America's largest grassroots mental health organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals and families affected by mental illness. For more information on NAMI, go to [www.NAMI.org].
