All repairs are first come, first served. Fixers will be available beginning at 2:00 pm till 4:30, after which new repair requests
will not be accepted.
Register your broken item

Gilian Engelson so that organizers can plan accordingly (although walk-ins are also welcome). Your information will not be used for anything other than communicating about the Fix-It Fair.
If you are
interested in being a fixer or volunteer at the fair, please email lead organizer
