Throw away? No way! Volunteer 'fixers' will teach you simple repairs at Repair Cafe.
Bring in your sweaters with holes, finicky jewellery clasps, small objects for mechanical repair. Let's move towards Zero Waste!

Do you have other circular economy skills you'd like to share during the event? We've previously hosted bookbinding, vermicomposting, and participatory quilting. To get involved, email Victoria Ho, Advisor, Strategic Sustainability, Office of Diversity, Equity & Sustainability Initiative (ODESI) at vho@ocadu.ca
