One of the premier parties of the spring, Zoo New England’s Zootopia fundraiser takes place at the Royal Sonesta Boston Hotel in Cambridge (40 Edwin Land Blvd.) on May 12 from 6–11 p.m. Benefitting both the Franklin Park Zoo and Stone Zoo, this grand gala—for which attendees are encouraged to don their most creative, animal-inspired cocktail attire—features a cocktail reception, auction, dancing, music and appearances by some of the zoos’ most charismatic animal ambassadors. Hosted by NBC10 Boston and New England Cable News personalities Latoyia Edwards and Matt Noyes, this is one evening not to be missed.
