The Animal Protection Society of Durham celebrated its 50th anniversary at its Tails at Twilight Beyond the Ballroom virtual gala on Nov. 8. The Zoom event included a live auction, a mixology class led by Shannon Healy of Alley Twenty Six and a “grab-and-gala” boxed meal from JB Duke Hotel. More than 150 items were included in this year’s auction, including a pet-friendly vacation, jewelry from Jewelsmith and a “Face of APS” pet photo session. APS cared for 4,245 animals in 2020; the $110,000 that sponsors and supporters raised from the gala will support APS throughout the next year to continue supporting Durham’s animals in need. – by Renee Ambroso
