The American Association for Nude Recreation (AANR) is a non-profit organization that promotes social nudity and the benefits of a clothing-optional lifestyle. Founded in 1931, it aims to educate the public about the positive aspects of nudism, including body acceptance and personal freedom. AANR provides resources for individuals and families interested in nude recreation, including information on affiliated resorts, clubs, and events. AANR also advocates for the rights of nudists and works to create a positive image of nudism in society. The organization hosts various events, such as the annual Nude Recreation Week, encouraging participation in outdoor activities without clothing.
