Fixit Clinic: BPL Central Branch
Explore troubleshooting and repair with volunteer coaches.
Fixit Clinics are free workshops where people bring broken stuff—from bikes to blenders to blazers—and volunteer Fixit 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 Boston Public Library's Central Library in Copley Square to host one of these events in the Kirstein Business Library & Innovation Center, located on the lower level of the Boylston Street building.
