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 to help troubleshoot and (hopefully) repair items. These meet-ups build hands-on skills, confidence, community, and a culture of reuse and repair.

The City of Boston Environment Department is partnering with the West End Branch of the Boston Public Library to host one of these events. This special Fixit Clinic Junior is for children ages 6-12 years old!
