Public Tours are Back!

At long last, we are able to offer drop-in tours of the shop again – in person! Stop by any Friday night, from 7-9pm, and we’ll give tours every half hour or so.

For now, MASKS ARE REQUIRED for guests, whether vaccinated or not.

These are not yet “guest work time” as we used to hold, pre-pandemic. Sadly, no tool-use by guests just yet. We are working our way back to that, and will report here as soon as that changes. For now, it’s just a tour of the space, and sparkling conversation!

Hope to see you there!

New Members Now Being Accepted!

With eased city/county restrictions, the Bodgery is accepting applications for membership again. (Starting January 15th, but ramping up slowly.)

In order to sign up, please head over to our Membership page for details and follow the steps there. Make sure to follow each step, so we can ensure that new folks know how to get what they need at the shop, and that COVID protocols are followed.

Thanks for your patience, and we look forward to seeing you around the shop! (from 6′ away, wearing masks, etc) 🙂

We are (temporarily) not accepting new members.

Due to the rapidly rising Covid-19 case numbers in Wisconsin, as of October 28th, we are putting a temporary hold on new members. No new membership applications are being accepted at this time and no new member orientations will be given. This is in effect until further notice. We will re-evaluate in two weeks and make a decision to begin accepting new members or to extend the hold at that time.

Stay tuned to this website for information on our reopening date.

We’re Accepting New Members

As of today, we’re opening up to new members again! If you’d like to become a member, go to the membership page and follow directions there.

Keep in mind that we have new COVID policies for those using the shop. Check them out here.

When the timing feels safe to the board, we’ll begin opening up to guests again, via Open Shop nights (Mon/Fri nights) and classes. Stay tuned here on our website (banner at the top), and social media channels (FB, Instagram) for announcements on when we’re open to the public again.

Thanks for your patience with this slow opening, and the extra steps to keep others healthy!

We’re re-opening!

We are opening the space up again, slowly to follow City rules.

Hurray!

We’re starting with opening up to current members (and we’re SO grateful for their continued support during this difficult time. Thank you!). We’ll bring them in slowly in batches, so we’re keeping space utilization within recommended percentages.

We have new COVID policies for those using the shop. Check them out here.

Once we’ve brought back all our current membership, we’ll begin holding new member orientations and giving them access. If you’d like to become a member, go to the membership page and follow directions there. We look forward to meeting you!
