Auckland Library of Tools (ALoT) in collaboration with Repair Cafe Aotearoa NZ (RCANZ) are excited to bring you free 1st Thursdays repair and maintenance workshops at Hackland Makerspace, just behind ALoT! Koha is appreciated, to help us continue to bring you repair cafés and workshops.

Thursday November 7 will be a basic sewing machine parts and maintenance workshop. Come learn the parts of a standard sewing machine, what they do, and how to care for them so they run smoothly for years to come. No need to bring your machine, but you are welcome to bring it if you want to get hands-on!

There will be nibbles and tea on hand, but contributions of food and beverage are always very welcome. Koha always appreciated.

Getting here:
Bus stops on Ponsonby Rd (InnerLink, 20, 105, 106, 866), Great North Rd (11T/W, 18, 20, 195), and Karangahape Rd (WX1)
We are also near the northwestern cycleway.
Limited free parking is available in the lot next door (nevermind the signs) or on side streets. There is no parking in front of ALoT/Hackland.

These workshops are part of the Repair & Share project, a weekly repair cafe hosted by ALoT, RCANZ, and Hackland and supported by Auckland Council.
