PARADE: With rain in the forecast for most of the afternoon, this year’s Pride theme “Can’t Stop. Won’t Stop” will be heavily tested. We rally the pride community and pride supporters not to let the rain dampen their spirits, but rather to embrace opportunities for jokes about things like coming home wet. The Twenty-ninth Annual Pride Parade starts at Bloor and Church, travelling west to Yonge Street, and then south on Yonge to Gerrard Street for the finish. Judges will be watching for best costumes, art direction, special effects, sound design, and more. Church and Bloor streets to Yonge and Gerrard streets, 2 p.m., FREE.

ART: Some of the artists who recently turned their attention to a touch of tush are now having a go at "Bugs." Nancy Draws, Runt, Sam Ferrara, Vesna Mostovac, Fiona Smyth, Serge Fortin, and Joey DAMMIT! place our numerous nefarious nemeses under a microscope and examine our love-hate relationship with them. The exhibit, curated by Nancy Draws, continues to April 5. To attend tonight’s opening please RSVP to rsvp@steamwhistle.ca. Steam Whistle Gallery (255 Bremner Boulevard), 6–10 p.m., FREE.
