Repair Café event returns to Marquette

MARQUETTE, Mich. (WLUC) – If you have broken items at home, Saturday is your chance to fix them.

The repair café returns to the Peter White Public Library. The event takes place from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. in the basement of the building.

A partnership between the library and the Marquette Sustainability Coalition makes this possible. Library director Andrea Ingmire says all items are welcome.

“People are just bringing in things that aren’t working very well and we have a great group of volunteers willing to look at them and give an assessment on what a solution might look like and whether or not they feel capable of do it, and then work with that person to show them what they do,” Ingmire said.

Participation in the Repair Café is free.

Ingmire says they plan to host a repair cafe every month for most of the year.
