Spider-Man Week is going full steam ahead in NYC and the events keep on coming. Now we have word on another appearance by James Garfield. This time he will be giving a spider to the American Museum of Natural History.

Here’s the scoop:

ANDREW GARFIELD, STAR OF THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN,

DELIVERS SPIDER TO AMERICAN MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY

AS PART OF SPIDER-MAN WEEK in New York City

 

WHEN            Wednesday, June 27, at 11:00 am, weather permitting

                        Press Call Time: 10:30AM

 

WHAT            As part of Spider-Man week in New York City, Spider-Man will be at the Museum to hand-deliver a live Chilean rose tarantula to Norman Platnick, the curator of the upcoming exhibition Spiders Alive!, which opens at the Museum on July 28. Andrew Garfield, the actor who plays Peter Parker in the upcoming film The Amazing Spider-Man, will also make an appearance. This event coincides with the one-week celebration leading up to The Amazing Spider-Man, opening nationwide July 3.

 

Featuring a variety of your favorite neighborhood spiders (and others from more far-flung locations), Spiders Alive! will showcase the fascinating and complex world of arachnids. For centuries, spiders have inspired mythmakers from Ovid to E. B. White to the creators of the eponymous superhero, but their actual role in diverse ecosystems around the globe is just as captivating. In addition to live spiders representing approximately 20 species, the exhibition will also include larger-than-life models of spiders, a climbable spider model, fossils, and more.
