Saturday, May 14, 2022. Manassas, Virginia. The ARTfactory at 9419 Battle St., Manassas, VA held an artist reception for the Prince William Art Society's 50th Anniversary this evening. With music playing outside from a wonderful band entertaining the public as they walked by, PWAS artists, guests and visitors came inside the gallery to enjoy the artwork, to mingle and enjoy the nibbles. Many thanks to Jordan Exum for such a lovely evening.
