Volunteer at our Fix Nearly Anything Drop-in Program
Help participants fix their broken items so they can reuse them. Perhaps their favorite pair of jeans needs to be patched, or an old lamp has seen better days? We encourage people not to just throw them out - but instead to figure out how to fix them! We have a sewing machine, jewelry parts, hand tools, and more on hand,
Our drop in event is 6-8 pm, one Thursday a month in The Shop, at Arlington's Central library.
