Events Description

 

Repair Cafés are an international concept that has come to Ottawa with the goal of reducing landfill waste, teaching new skills, and building community!

Our past Repair Cafés have been very successful with volunteers fixing dozens of items and sharing their knowledge around everything from darning socks to re-wiring kettles. Join us, especially if you’re a member of the Vanier community, on Saturday, September 4th at Vanier Community Hub from 10am until 3pm (item registration ends at 2pm). It is a great day to come out and learn more about the Ottawa Tool Library and our community!

Please bring ONE item to be fixed to allow time for everyone to see a fixer and learn new skills. If you bring more than one item, the first item will be registered and once it is fixed, the second item will be registered, and so on. You can bring small appliances, jewelry, eye glasses, (clean) clothes, small furniture, computers, bikes, and more! Please bring any replacement parts you’ll need to complete the fix, ie. buttons, switches, new power cords, and zippers.
