The Centennial Gala celebrates "Philadelphia's Firsts". IHP, as the world's first International House, will honor other Philadelphia Firsts which have brought distinction to the city through arts, culture, education, business and civic leadership.
The Centennial Gala will transform IHP's home into a Philadelphia microcosm taking guests through South Philadelphia, Chestnut Hill, Chinatown, and the Main Line Philadelphia. Beginning on our beautiful terrace, guests will be transported through this miniature city as they enjoy a variety of Philadelphia's famous foods.
This black-tie event will continue with cocktails, followed by a seated dinner and conclude with dessert and dancing. Entertainment will include Live Music and many surprises for guests. The Gala will feature a multicultural silent auction and an opportunity to meet Residents of IHP who hail from over 90 countries.
