Join us for a free Community Take-Apart event where we'll open up broken gadgets and gizmos to see what makes them work. This is a hands-on, no-pressure event—perfect for anyone who's ever been curious about the inner workings of everyday electronics.

We'll provide the tools and a friendly, fun atmosphere. Note that reassembly is not guaranteed! This event is all about exploration, discovery, and the joy of seeing what's inside.

Bring a friend, bring an old device or something to takeapart (or check out our stash), and get ready to discover something new!
