Fix-It Clinics are do-it-together, hands-on, fix-n-learn workshops staffed by volunteer Fix-It Coaches who generously share their time, tools and expertise to consult with you on the disassembly, troubleshooting and repair of your item. Bring your broken, non-functioning household items — electronics, appliances, computers, toys, sewing machines, bicycles, fabric items and more — for assessment, disassembly, and possible repair. Whether you fix it or not, you'll learn more about how the item was manufactured and how it worked, and be ready to share your new-found confidence and insight with your friends, neighbors and the community-at-large.

Workspace, specialty tools, and guidance will be provided — however, you may also bring your own tools with you if you like.

Co-presented by the Hyde Park Branch Library, Keep Hyde Park Beautiful, and the City of Boston.

Fix-It Clinics are staffed by volunteers, if you are interested in lending your technical expertise and tools to help our community reduce its waste and extend the life of useful things, please email hydepark@bpl.org.
