Calling Broken Toys, Appliances and More: Next JP Fixit Clinic on Saturday

Jamaica Plain’s next Fixit Clinic is this Saturday at the Jamaica Plain Branch Library on South Street.

The Fixit Clinic will be from 10 am to 12:45 pm, and is a free, do-it-together activity for people to bring their broken household things and learn how to assess, disassemble and repair them. That's a much better option than sending them to the landfill.

All you need to do is bring your broken household items, any manuals (if available), and a willingness to learn. Clinic organizers will provide the tools, and volunteer coaches with expertise fixing a wide variety of things will help you.

Please bring the following items:

  • 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!

But no firearms, gasoline engines or other dangerous items.

You can pre-register by clicking here, which helps organizers ahead of time.

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