Welcome to Repair Café at the Owen Sound North Grey Union Public Library!

Join us on the second Saturday of each month from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. where like-minded individuals come together to help you fix your broken items—for free! Whether it’s clothing, jewellery, electronics, furniture, household, electrical or mechanical items, our team of volunteers are here to lend a hand and help breathe new life into your belongings.

The Repair Café isn’t just about fixing things; it’s about fostering connections within our community while promoting sustainability. Enjoy refreshments and connect with fellow community members while you learn new skills and save money. Together, we can keep items out of landfills and make a positive impact on the environment—one repair at a time.

If you plan to attend the Repair Cafe. Don’t forget to register at our reception area upon arrival. This helps us match you with the right fixer for your item. And if you have it, bring along the manual or other technical documentation too!
