Tuesday kicks off with a free balance class for active adults and wraps up with the first performance of "Orphans" at the Maltz Jupiter Theatre. In between, there's drop-in bridge, a New Orleans-style dinner night and a paint-your-own class. For families, it's a Halloween-flavored day, with spooky crafts at the library, the Gardens Mall's not-so-haunted house and a costume party at Tiki 52 in Tequesta.
