Iowa City’s 2026 Repair Café schedule lists November 14 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The November venue and repair stations still need confirmation before residents bring an item.
The program is volunteer-operated. Repair volunteers assess items and teach repair skills when parts, supplies, and circumstances allow. A repair is not guaranteed, and the event is structured around evaluation and learning rather than a promise that every item can be restored.
Participants should bring one item at a time. After one repair attempt or assessment, additional items return to the queue.
The official annual schedule confirms the November 14 date and time. The November venue and repair stations were not confirmed in the information checked October 11; confirm those details before bringing an item.
