Fixit Clinics

For the past several years, Judi and Eli have volunteered at Keep Truckee Green’s Fixit Clinics, free to the public, hosted at Truckee Roundhouse. “Repair is a sustainable act that encourages reusing resources at hand rather than purchasing new. To date, Truckee Fixit Clinics have saved over 1,000 lbs of items from the landfill! We’ve repaired items from toaster ovens, wooden chairs, to lamps, puffy jackets and denim. Bring in what you got, our “Fixit Coaches” are up for the challenge! But even if the item isn’t fixed, there’s a valuable educational aspect to understanding why it stopped working.” -Truckee Roundhouse

Judi also teaches a monthly free Textile Reuse & Repair workshop sponsored by Keep Truckee Green. To be notified of upcoming dates, get onto the Truckee Roundhouse newsletter, emailed out twice monthly.
