The West Vancouver Memorial Library Foundation fundraising gala Passport to Spain drew 200 guests to the library Nov. 2. Guests enjoyed a Spanish-themed evening complete with wine, appetizers and flamenco dancing, as well as a fashion show featuring clothing from Park Royal merchants and modelled by local media personalities.

The evening also capped off A Passport to Art, a month-long art auction in support of the foundation. More than $85,000 was raised in support of library programs, services and enhancements.
