Centennial Exposition
La Centennial International Exhibition (Centjariĝa Internacia Ekspozicio) de 1876, la unua oficiala internacia ekspozicio en Usono, okazis en Filadelfio, Pensilvanio, el 10a de majo al 10a de novembro, 1876, por celebri la 100an jariĝon de la subskribo de la Deklaro de Sendependeco en Filadelfio.
Oficiale nomita International Exhibition of Arts, Manufactures and Products of the Soil and Mine (Internacia Ekspozicio de Artoj, Manufakturoj kaj Produktoj de la Grundo kaj Minado) okazis en Parko Fairmount laŭlonge de la rivero Schuylkill sur terenoj dezajnitaj de Herman J. Schwarzmann. Ĉeestis ĉirkaŭ 10 milionoj da vizitantoj, egale al ĉirkaŭ 20% el la loĝantaro de Usono tiam.
Por tiu okazo oni kreis la ĝermon de tio kio nun estas la Filadelfia Artomuzeo.
