The Invitation –
Saturday, April 26th 11am-3pm at the Picton Public Library, lower-level flex space.
Help prevent common household items from ending up in the trash/landfill by bringing them to the PEC Repair Café! It’s an opportunity to have your item(s)* repaired for FREE by rad community volunteers who believe in a shared responsibility of care and maintenance for the items we own and use. Meet skilled community members who will help you diagnose your repair and take the necessary steps to complete** it with you. We are focusing on offering repairs for items in these categories: fabrics/clothing, electronics, household items, small appliances, small furniture/wooden items, (new this year!) bicycles.
*In order to best share resources among all visitors to the Repair Cafe, please be mindful to bring up to 5 items for repair.
**Although many common repairs are possible to achieve at the Repair Café, it’s not always possible to fully fix all items as it depends on the skills, materials, and time available for each unique repair
