During the winter months, always check the events calendar before heading to The Bodgery as we may cancel events due to inclement weather. |
A Makerspace in Madison, WI

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.

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 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!

Due to the Governor’s “Safer At Home” order, as of March 24th, we are closed to both the public and to members. No new membership applications are being accepted at this time.
This is in effect until further notice. We will reopen to the public as quickly as we legally and reasonably can.

After much discussion, and following the example of institutions like the UW Madison, the Bodgery’s board has decided to cancel Open Shop nights for the next few weeks, at least. We will monitor the situation as it emerges, and extend the cancellation window if needed.
As of March 15th, we are also temporarily not accepting new membership applications.
We’ll keep you informed of when things return to normal operations on this website.
Current members still have access to the shop–this only relates to public events, like Open Shop nights and classes. We hope that by limiting the flow of traffic through the shop, the transmission of the coronavirus (COVID-19) will be slowed in the Madison area.
That said, we take public access very seriously, and will reopen to the public as quickly as we prudently can. Stay tuned to this website for our re-open date.
