What kind of Repairs Will be Offered at the April 27, 2024 Café?
We are currently organizing our April 27, 2024 Café and plan to offer the following repairs. The Repairers tackle simple repairs that can be done in 20 minutes or so. You can watch while your item is repaired or possibly assist with the repair.
