Sunday, January 26, 1:00-4:00pm
The East Brunswick Public Library and the East Brunswick Sustainability Task Force want you to keep still usable items out of landfills. They are holding their first ever Repair Café at the library (2 Jean Walling Civic Center Drive) on Sunday, January 26 from 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
A Repair Café is a community-based initiative to promote repairing household items instead of throwing them out. Community members can bring in items in need of repair to be fixed on the spot thanks to the help of some volunteer repairers.
At the first ever Repair Café, you can bring clothing/textiles (shirts, pants, sweaters, knitted blankets, etc.) and jewelry (bracelets, necklaces, earrings, etc.). Examples of repairs can be an afghan with moth holes, pants with a tear in the knee, broken links on necklaces and bracelets that are coming undone.
The Repair Café will be held in Meeting Rooms 1 and 2.
