Sesqui SinksIntended for adults

Join us for the first lecture in a series of three presentations on Sesqui! Greed, Graft, and the Forgotten World’s Fair of 1926 by local historian Thomas Keels in commemoration of America’s 250th anniversary. Learn about how the Sesqui-Centennial International Exposition of 1926, meant to be the greatest world fair since the 1876 Centennial, became Philadelphia’s “forgotten fair”.
