Your community needs your skills! Calling all ‘fixers’!

Join us at Carpinteria’s first FIX-IT FAIR happening on May 31, 2025. We are looking for volunteers who have skills in repairing clothing, lamps, small appliances, small electronics, computers, jewelry, and more.

As a volunteer, you’ll play a key role in providing repair assistance and education, empowering attendees to learn how to fix their own belongings. Volunteers will need to bring their own tools, but the City of Carpinteria will provide tables and chairs.

In exchange for donating your time and skills to the community, you will be able to:

  • Promote your business at the event
  • Be featured on the event webpage and outreach materials as a sponsor for this event

Fix-it Fairs demonstrate that repair is a practical and accessible option in Santa Barbara County. By keeping items out of landfills, supporting local families, and strengthening our local economy, these events help build a more resilient and connected community.

Sign up as a volunteer today HERE.
