"Repair Cafés are an international concept that has come to the National Capital Region with the goal of reducing landfill waste, teaching new skills, and building community!
"Our past Repair Cafés have been very successful with volunteers fixing hundreds of items and sharing their knowledge around everything from darning socks to re-wiring kettles.
"It's first-come, first-served, so please be prepared for the chance of extended wait times. Though we work as quickly and efficiently as we can, the popularity of these events is increasing and we can never tell what kind of wait there may be for us to see your item. We ask for your patience and kindness - remember, we are all on this repair mission together! :)
"This event is sponsored by the #DreamCommunityFoundation and hosted by #Zibi and is FREE OF CHARGE. This listing is for information purposes only. All registration occurs onsite. You DO NOT HAVE TO REGISTER via Eventbrite, but a donation to support these great initiatives is always appreciated and helps cover expenses for volunteers. Note that if you kindly donate it does not mean you get to skip the line or show up as we are closing down with the expectation that someone will see your item.
"Please only bring ONE item to be fixed, as time and space are limited. If your item is missing a piece or needs a replacement part, please bring that as well. We ask that if you bring in textiles that they are clean.
Everyone is welcome at this free event, there will be coffee and snacks and lots of people to meet and chat with!
#Accessibility information:
The venue is wheelchair accessible. The washrooms are also #WheelchairAccessible. Participants may be required to wait in line; some chairs will be provided. There will be vapours in use from glue and other solvents."
