Join the City of Carlsbad for a fixit clinic and repair event. Bring your broken, non-working items—electronics, appliances, computers, toys, bicycles, clothes and more—for assessment, disassembly and possible repair. We'll provide workspace, specialty tools and guidance to help you take apart and troubleshoot your item. Even if we can't fix it, you'll learn more about how it was made and works.

At this Earth Month themed Fixit Clinic, you can:

• Get help fixing small appliances, electronics, bikes, clothing and more.
• Craft do-it-yourself coasters and cake stands from construction and demolition materials.
• Learn how to upcycle old wood pallets into a beautiful new planter.
• Drop off old or broken electronics for proper recycling (e-waste collection provided by Republic Services).
• Drop off household batteries and lightbulbs.
