Kitsap Fix-it Fair - Poulsbo

Description

Do you have something broken at home? Instead of throwing it away, see if it can be repaired at the next Fix-it Fair! This free community repair event helps reduce waste by extending the life of household items through repair rather than replacement.

Join us on Saturday, October 3, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Poulsbo Kitsap Regional Library, 700 NE Lincoln Road.

Hosted by the Kitsap County Solid Waste Division in partnership with the Poulsbo Kitsap Regional Library, the Fix-It Fair connects residents with skilled volunteer fixers who will attempt to repair items while sharing practical repair tips and techniques.

Kitsap County residents can bring up to two items for volunteer fixers to assess and attempt repairs.

Popular items include:

• Lamps and small appliances
• Vacuums
• Small electronics
• Clothing and textiles

What not to bring:

• No large appliances
• No appliances with refrigerants
• No items that are leaking fluids
• No items having noxious or excessive odors
• No microwaves
• No items filled with oil or gas
• No grimy, dirty, or hazardous items
• No oversized items

Please note:

• Items must be carried in and out by the owner
• Repairs are not guaranteed some may take longer than event time allows or even break during attempts.
• Participants must check-in 30 minutes prior to the end time of the event.
