Fixit Clinic Junior: BPL Central Branch

Fixit Clinics are free workshops where people bring broken stuff—from bikes to blenders to blazers—and volunteer Fixit Coaches share their time, 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 Boston Public Library's Central Library in Copley Square to host one of these events in the Children's Library, located on the second floor of the Boylston Street building. This special Fixit Clinic Junior is for children ages 6-12 years old!

WHAT SHOULD I BRING?

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

• Useful tools and parts, if you have them

• A description of what’s wrong and anything you’ve tried to fix it—advance online research is helpful

• A desire to learn and share your knowledge!

These events are family-friendly and open to all. Interested in becoming a Fixit Coach yourself? Let us know.
