The exhibit will run until April 24. Each month the city displays art exhibits from a new artist at the hall, and can be viewed from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.
“Hannele Lhati is a nationally-recognized documentary and fine art photographer who creates images that explore the wonder and fragility of the natural world.

As a child, Lahti grew up on a lake and learned to respect the natural world, to honor its beauty as she sat by the water’s edge with her grandfather,” said Patty Prince, Communications Manager for the city, in a release.
The city reached out to Lahti after she was recommended by the Center for the Arts at the Candy Factory in Downtown Manassas.
“We are looking forward to this new exhibit by Hannele Lhati,” said City Manager W. Patrick Pate, continuing, “The Hall is already drawing a following of both artists and patrons and we look forward to what comes next.”
