Repair Cafés

Repair Café is a movement to revive broken things by repairing them together.

For upcoming dates and locations check out the foundation website. Additional information might be posted to Delta21 in the future.

Repair Café at the CoMakingSpace

We are cooperating with Ökostadt Rhein-Neckar to extend the Repair Café scope beyond the usual repair categories. At the CoMakingSpace, the entire wood workshop stands ready to help with small furniture repairs and we may even be able to replace a couple of broken plastic pieces by 3D printing new parts! We would also like to invite people who would like to learn about bike maintenance :-)

• next date: April 30, 2022 / 14:00-18:00 (facebook event)
• interested members: join #topic-repair on slack or talk to Lukas!
• we need: repairers, organizers, cake donations?!
