Williamstown Repair Cafe Begins Sept. 24
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Repair Café, co-sponsored by the South Williamstown Community Association and Williamstown Rural Lands at Sheep Hill, 671 Cold Spring Road will begin Saturday, Sept. 24, running from 1 to 4 p.m.
The event allows people to bring broken items in order for them to be repaired. Volunteer "fixers" include people who can do small electrical repairs (vacuum cleaners, immersion blenders, lamps), wooden furniture repair (chairs, benches, frames), blade sharpening (knives, scissors, small tools), costume jewelry repairs (rhinestone replacement, new clasps), leather repairs, and our ever popular darners, knitters, and sewers.
The event will have two computer experts, refreshments, and is partnering with the BagShare Project to make reusable shopping bags.
Materials and grommet machines to make them will be provided. Repair Café is free, although donations are accepted.
