While the Manege is gearing up to host its next major exhibition, it never ceases to please its visitors and passers-by alike with open-air installations. These days, the hall’s square became the setting for a photo exhibition organized by the Nochlezhka charity organization. The exhibition is meant to raise awareness about homelessness by presenting photographs taken by people who have no roof over their heads.
