Do you have broken stuff around your house? Don’t throw it away. Bring it to our Repair Cafe and learn to repair it. We have experts to fix almost anything. And it’s free!
Please note: At the Repair Café, our dedicated experts generously volunteer their time to assist attendees, ensuring a cost-free experience for all participants. It’s important to note that beyond the event, our Repair Café volunteers do not offer complimentary repair services, and such expectations should not arise. If you encounter a Repair Café volunteer outside of the event, we encourage you to express gratitude for their volunteer efforts, rather than approaching them with requests for free repairs. Our volunteers’ commitment to the event is truly appreciated, and we want to maintain a positive and respectful interaction with them at all times.
The action of fixing or mending something to extend it's lifespan.
The Repair Café helps people reconnect with the things they own. Swift Current’s Repair Café works to create a more sustainable community and fight against the throwaway culture. It encourages a sharing economy by bringing together people with repair skills and fostering collaboration for the greater good.
The Swift Current Repair Café is about more than fixing broken items—it’s about connection, sustainability, and sharing skills that make a difference. This inspiring short documentary by OTime highlights how people come together to repair, learn, and grow a stronger, more connected community.
Thank you to all our sponsors. We could not put on this event without their support.
Please help us thank them by using their services and shopping in their stores.
Bring your curiosity, your skill, and your neighborly spirit. The Repair Café isn’t just a place to fix things—it’s a movement where every repair has a story. Let’s reduce waste, save money, and build friendships, one repair at a time.
