What's a Repair Café?

A Repair Café is an event where anyone can bring a broken, but beloved item, for a free repair.  Visitors are expected to stay, perhaps enjoy a cup of tea or coffee, and learn about repairs with the help of an expert Repair Coach. 

Repair Cafés are run by volunteers who enjoy fixing things and helping others to learn how to make repairs themselves. You’ll be checked in at the reception table as you enter the Middle School Cafeteria, and directed to the appropriate Repair Coach.

Reservations are recommended, but not required.

How can I help out?

There are two main types of volunteers we need to make our Repair Cafés happen.   We need General Volunteers to help set up, check in guests, and serve refreshments. We also need Repair Coaches — volunteers who do the mending and fixing of household items. 

If you’re interested in general volunteering at Repair Cafés and/or other events, complete this General Volunteer Form

 If you can fix stuff or want to learn by working with other repair coaches, complete the Repair Café Volunteer Application below.
