Spider-Man Week in NYC Kicks Off Tomorrow

Spider-Man Week!

From June 25th to July 1st, New York City will be celebrating Spider-Man! There are a bunch of coordinated events to promote the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man film. Some of them are really cool! Previous Spider-Man shows will be screened at places like The Museum of the Moving Image and The Paley Center for Media. The Empire State Building will be lit Blue and Red to honor Spidey. The Bronx Zoo and The New York Botanical Gardens will both feature spiders. Best of all, Spidey will be making appearances at Yankee Stadium all week (Yankees? Everyone knows Spidey is a Mets fans!). You can get alll of the details at http://www.spidermanweeknyc.com/.


Part of Spider-Man Week is "Be Amazing 2012" on Tuesday the 26th of June. In 10 major cities in the US, you can volunteer in literally one of hundreds of different ways. 1LR applauds this civic-minded community outreach. Imagine this - movie promotion that makes a positive difference inside local communities. Now THAT'S "amazing."
