Temporarily Closing to New Members

New Memberships are Temporarily Paused

As a volunteer-run organization, we are not only limited by space, but also by “human infrastructure” to provide services the members depend upon. At over 500 members, we have unfortunately reached the limits of our ability to add more.

While we investigate how to change our infrastructure to handle higher member counts, we are temporarily stopping accepting new members.

We apologize for the inconvenience to those who would like to join and be part of the Bodgery. Please know that we are working hard on creating more capacity, and hope to be able to lift this cap soon. We will announce on our Instagram/FB accounts, and here on our website, when we resume taking new members.

OPEN for Public Tours and New Memberships!

Since Omicron cases and hospitalizations have declined significantly, the board has decided to open again for drop-in tours of the shop! Stop by any Friday night, from 7-9pm, and we’ll give tours every half hour or so.

We’re also accepting new membership applications! If you’re interested in becoming a member, head on over to our Membership Page, and follow the process there.

Masks were required for all guests and members. Now we’re following the Madison & Dane County Public Health Coronavirus Guidelines

Hope to see you there!

New Memberships and Public Tours Temporarily Suspended

We hate to announce this, but with the rapid spread of the Omicron COVID variant, the Bodgery is temporarily closed to new memberships and public tours. The case data will be reviewed weekly for decisions on opening up again.

We apologize for the inconvenience, and wish it were otherwise, but in the interest of protecting the health of our members and potential visitors, we’re holding off for the next month.

We will continue to monitor the data, and we will notify here when we are open again (purple bar above). We appreciate your patience with this change and ongoing uncertainty. All the best to you and yours in the New Year.

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) 🙂
