KQED’s Local Naked Explores Places Where Being Nude Is Not Only Legal, But Encouraged

Local Naked

In the 1960s, nudity was widely seen as a form of political and artistic expression. Hippies spread across the country; in San Francisco it became common at Golden Gate Park and clothing-optional beaches. But in 2012 lawmakers introduced legislation banning public nudity from San Francisco streets, plazas, parks and transit. Although there may be exceptions such as riding Muni naked or chilling out naked in public parks – any forms of public nudity is generally not tolerated by law.

So how are Bay Area residents still going about their daily lives in public without clothing? KQED’s Local Naked takes a look at places where being Naked is both legal and encouraged.

Jenn Harris of “LA Times” food column fame is well-known for taking readers on her culinary tours through Los Angeles fried chicken joints, dumpling shops and pasta joints – however recently added another dimension. Harris attended Fude hosted by artist Charlie Ann Max as part of NudEats series of nude experiences.

NudEats is an event and cooking class series hosted by Charlie Ann Max, a Los Angeles-based artist who began the concept in 2007. Attendees are welcome to wear as little or as much clothing they feel is comfortable for them during an event; they simply need to bring a plate and drink of their choosing; menu options include salads, soups, pasta and fried chicken; Chef Max recommends also bringing along a penknife as cutting food increases its potential leaching of nutrients.
