Description
Repair Acts explores repair, care, maintenance and healing cultures. We do this by creating contexts for dialogue around restorative futures through making and building art works, carrying out desk-based and applied research, designing, and developing art exhibitions, workshops and conversational spaces.
Working deeply at a local level within landscapes and infrastructures and in association with communities, governing bodies, craft, artisan, skilled trades and other professions, we connect local wisdom to global flows, through policy, law, legalisation and international partnership.
Join us to find out more about Repair Acts and our current activities. Learn about histories of repair economies in Bristol. Contribute your repair stories to our "People’s Archive of Everyday Repair,” and add your views to our Repair Declaration for Bristol.
Not need to sign up, just drop in.
