—Expert advice on House Plant Repair & Re-potting offered by local experts, including the former greenhouse manager at Mohonk Mountain House for many years. BYO pot!
—Know Thyself: Small Repairs and Adjustments Though Palmistry. With Ellen Goldberg, psychotherapist and teacher of palmistry and tarot. She is co-author of The Art and Science of Hand Reading
Plus, Saugerties author Vernon Benjamin will offer “wordsmithing”: wise and experienced editorial advice for any type of writing, letter or document brought to him.
We are in need of a clothing & textiles repair coach, ideally with a sewing machine. Could that be you??
In addition to repairs, one of our jewelry repair coaches has a gold and silver polishing tumbler for small items (not chains).
Note: We do not offer bicycle repairs.
So please come & bring a friend! Learn how to fix things yourself. Sit and watch, sit and chat, get to know your neighbors. Most things get fixed, and even when they don’t, we have a good time & learn a lot!
Do you have questions? Do you want to bring something you’re not sure we can repair? Please get in touch with us ahead of time. repaircafe@woodstock.org or (845) 679-4862.
