Repair Cafe and the Fixer Movement

Do you have something that you love but it no longer works or is damaged and wish you could repair it?

How do we fix broken things we use and love in our "disposable" world?

Where can go to figure out if something is worth repairing?
Our dumps are filling up with stuff we throw away because we no longer fix things-we buy new things, which frequently aren't as well made.

The fixer movement with event-based repair, such as Repair Cafe and Fixit-Clinic offer a solution to help divert valuable resources from landfill. These organizations are re-introducing a fixer-mentality and a curiosity of how things work, and how they can be fixed.

Find out more about this movement and how you can be a part of it!

(No repairs will be done at this learning event.)
