Come fix all the things! Join us for our next Fix-it Fair at the Ohio Street Workstudios. We will have clothing mending, small appliance repair, knife sharpening, bike repair, jewelry repair, and more!
All repairs are done free or by donation. Repairs requiring additional time or parts may be referred elsewhere.
Let us help you bring all your favorite things back to life!
Want to know more?! Below is information about repairs offered and the amazing volunteers that help! If you don’t see the diaper for a pair, you’re looking for, feel free to reach out and ask!
Clothing mending: holes/rips in clothing, holes in pockets, button repairs, torn stuffed animals, blanket mends
Small appliances: lamps, kitchen items, tools, electrical items, kids’ toys, space heaters – basically anything you can bring in. While they can’t fix everything, they do have an excellent record of successful repairs. Please don't bring anything containing gasoline or petroleum products, hazardous, or grimy items.

Leather conditioning: shoe polishing, reconditioning of bags, wallets, purses, belts
