Repair Café at Toronto Reference Library


We had the 8th monthly Repair Café held at the Toronto Reference Library on February 8th. This was the first time the Repair Café reached out to the neighbourhood in the downtown core.

If you had happened to pass by the Café, you would have been drawn into the energy that filled the room, with fixers and visitors talking to each other while they repaired various broken items together.

With the terrific support from our dedicated team of volunteers, we had a delightful success with a great turnout of visitors. Once again we are grateful to our partners: Toronto Public Library, Frank’s Pizza House, Balzac’s Coffee Roasters and Circles and Squares Bakery.

If you need help fixing a broken item, don’t miss our next Repair Café on March 8 at Skills for Change. We will have fixers available for computers, small appliances, lamps, small furniture, clothes, jewellery and books, among other household items. You will also have a chance to see a 3D printer at work creating parts for repair replacement.
