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.
