Repair Public
Sunday, July 21, 2019
Repair Public is an exercise in community resourcefulness. The idea is to encourage people to learn how and/or where to fix broken items instead of tossing them into a landfill and buying replacements.
The participants and facilitators are local community members just like you. You bring a broken item that you want help repairing as well as a willingness to try to fix it. There will be repair facilitators on-hand to help you figure out how to fix your treasure, each with one or more areas of specialty.
We’ll have various tools available for use, as well as some basic supplies like screws, tape, glue, wire nuts, needles, threads, and probably appliance cord with some plug-ends. With all these ingredients, we intend to help you repair whatever you decide to bring in – to learn more https://repairpublic.org/. Donations and registration appreciated: https://tinyurl.com/y282mwda
