Fixit Clinics are free workshops where people bring broken stuff—from bikes to blenders to blazers—and volunteer coaches share their tools and know-how, working with you to troubleshoot and (hopefully) repair items. These meet-ups build hands-on skills, confidence, community, and a culture of reuse and repair; they are family-friendly and open to all. The City of Boston Environment Department is partnering with Boston Building Resources to host one of these events. 

SIGN UP to participate:

REGISTER YOUR ITEM

WHAT SHOULD I BRING?

  • A broken gadget, small appliance, computer, toy, textile good, or other item

  • A description of what’s wrong and anything you’ve tried to fix it

  • Useful tools and parts, if you have them

  • A desire to explore and learn!

Sign up to coach, support, or observe:

Volunteer for the event

Volunteers make these workshops possible. People skilled in any type of repair or maintenance are encouraged to join this fixing community. Support staff help run the event, signing in participants and connecting them with coaches. Or, attend as an observer to learn about these roles.
