Jamaica Plain’s fourth Fixit Clinic is scheduled for this Saturday. It's a free, all-ages, do-it-together activity where people bring their broken household things and learn how to assess, disassemble and repair them instead of sending them to landfill.

Come join your neighbors on November 3rd for this free event from 10 am to 12:45 pm at the Jamaica Plain Branch Library (30 South St.).

Just bring your broken household items, any manuals (if available) and a willingness to learn. Tools will be provided and volunteer coaches with expertise fixing a wide variety of things will help fix items including:

  • Bikes and skateboards
  • Clothing and fabric items
  • Computers and phones
  • Toys and wooden items
  • Small kitchen appliances
  • Small electrical devices
  • Jewelry
  • Lamps and anything else!

Firearms, gasoline engines or other dangerous items are not allowed.

Click here to pre-register, which will help organizers ahead of time.

Interested in volunteering to help others learn to fix things? Or interested in helping us spread the word about this community event throughout JP? Please email jpnc.fixitclinic@gmail.com
