Portland Repair Fair is here to fix your stuff for free.
Portland Repair Fairs are free events that bring together people with various skillsets to help fix items and, most importantly, pass on knowledge to empower you to be more handy around your home. You’ll be paired with a volunteer who will fix your item as you watch. You can sit back and enjoy the process or have the experts teach you how it’s done.
If you’re looking for another free resource in Portland, check out the local tool libraries.
Here are the upcoming Portland Repair Fair events.
