Dear members of the ANP Galaxy,
We are now entering the last full month of our Parisian naturist season, so let’s make the most of our sports sessions before the summer holidays. We look forward to seeing you there! And the cultural aspect hasn’t been forgotten there are still places available for the photo exhibition this Sunday.
On a more personal note, I’ve just returned from the FFN general assembly, held this year at the La Serre de Portelas naturist campsite, in the heart of the Auvergne region. It was a privilege to represent you at this important annual event where the clubs exercise democratic control of their overarching federation.
What struck me was the dedication of the campsite volunteers who worked tirelessly to organize and ensure the smooth running of this event. Thanks to their commitment and constant good humor, the delegates had a wonderful time, and the meetings went off without a hitch. This example should inspire us. We too need everyone’s support to keep the ANP alive. The spirit and values of naturism can only continue if many of you get involved and contribute to the association’s operation.
ANP Events this month
- Sunday, June 7 – NU AU PARADIS Exhibition – Espace MVG, Paris
NU AU PARADIS – Michael von Graffenried – Curator: Natasha Guy
An exceptional naturist visit to the “NUDE IN PARADISE” exhibition, organized in partnership with the Paris Naturist Association, offering an experience of observation and perception that resonates with the world of the series.
For over ten years, between 1987 and 2001, Michael von Graffenried immersed himself in the daily life of one of the oldest naturist associations in the world, located in Thielle, on the shores of Lake Neuchâtel, Switzerland. Behind the walls of the Die Neue Zeit camp, members of the Schweizerische Lichtfreunde (“Friends of Light”) cultivate a lifestyle based on nudity, but also on a certain idea of personal elevation: no alcohol, no tobacco, no meat.
