Spiders alive and well

See the spider of the sea

Head to the Brooklyn museum Wednesday to explore animals up close, including a meet-and-greet with the spider’s ancient ancestor, the horseshoe crab (sounds like a Spidey villain, but he’s really a friendly anthropod). There will be Spider-Man prizes for all ages. 1:30-2 p.m. For more info, go to brooklynkids.org (45 Brooklyn Ave.).
