FIXIT CLINIC
Advertisement
Explore troubleshooting and repair with volunteer coaches!
Fixit Clinics are free workshops where people bring broken stuff—from bikes to blenders to blazers—and volunteer coaches share their tools and know-how to help troubleshoot and (hopefully) repair items. These meet-ups build hands-on skills, confidence, community, and a culture of reuse and repair.
All ages welcome: a family-friendly event! Children under 13 years old must be accompanied by an adult parent/guardian. Walk-Ins welcome!
WHAT CAN BE FIXED?
Gadgets: Sound systems, watches, etc.
Small Appliances: Lamps, microwaves, blenders, vacuums, etc.
Computers & Handheld Electronics
Toys: Both electronic and non-electronic!
Jewelry
Textile Goods & Clothing
Bicycles: Park it outside and come see us!
WHAT SHOULD I BRING?
A broken item with all parts to recreate the symptoms (carry-in only: no oversize items)
Any parts and tools you already own that might be helpful (e.g. hand tools, sewing supplies)
A description of what’s wrong and anything you’ve tried to fix it—advance online research is helpful
A desire to learn and share your knowledge!
