ART: The Toronto Public Space Committee’s brilliant Art Attack! spends the day at the beach. The organization hosts a sandcastle-building day, open to anyone who shows up with a shovel and some imagination. Actually, the shovel is optional. They did send a long list of other suggested items, but it included “cute dogs,” “palm trees,” and “your engineering friend with extensive structural knowledge,” so we'll leave it to you to use your best judgement. Ashbridges Bay Beach, south of Greenwood bathing station, 4 p.m., FREE. (rain day scheduled for August 9).

PARADE: The 41st annual Caribana Parade runs along Lakeshore Boulevard today, starting at Exhibition Place and moving west. This year's celebration—like years past—will include Jamaican reggae bands, Latin salsa, Haitian zouk, and other music of the Caribbean, alongside colourfully-dressed dancers and other performers. And there will also be lots and lots of delicious Caribbean food. Exhibition Place (200 Princes' Boulevard), 10 a.m., FREE (unless you want to sit in the seated areas, where tickets are $25).
