Actress Katherine Heigl made a rare red carpet appearance at an animal rescue fundraiser hosted at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, the private resort owned by President Donald Trump.

Heigl, 47, attended the annual Wine, Women and Shoes fundraising weekend on March 8 in support of Big Dog Ranch Rescue, where Lara Trump, President Trump’s daughter-in-law and an honorary co-chair of the organization, was also in attendance. The actress later said her participation centered on animal welfare advocacy rather than politics.
