Repair Fair
Have a tear in your favorite shirt? Have a damaged or broken item that you want fixed? Join us at the Repair Fair, where you can reduce and reuse by learning how to mend clothing, and fix bikes, skateboards and simple electronics. Bring your damaged items to us at the SHED where other students will help you fix them, for free!
Come meet us in the Maker Showcase, where our staff will direct you to where you can get your item fixed.
Students with experience working with fabric, bikes, electronics, and other materials will be at the event, so don't hesitate to ask if your item can be fixed.
Free bicycle repair clinics!
Come learn the basics of how to maintain and care for a bicycle from a master bicycle mechanic and instructor. 30 minute sessions with six students each will be offered throughout the day. Bicycles and tools will be provided.
Free boot waterproofing!
Stop by the waterproofing station with your favorite hiking footwear to learn how to clean and treat your kicks, prolonging their useful life, helping to keep your feet dry and cozy, and promoting Leave No Trace practices by encouraging hiking on trail and through the water and muck, not around it.
