FULL DETAILS...

Immerse yourself in an extraordinary afternoon and evening of interaction and sensory delights. The Naked Dinner is an annual arts event hosted by The Naked World.

Upon arrival, each guest will be presented with an apron with a word painted on it. Throughout the afternoon and evening, team up with other attendees to create interesting sentences. Those involved in the funniest or most creative sentence will each win a ticket to the Undie Party {Magnetism} on Fri 01 March.

All guests will be asked to change into their apron (and only their apron) at their own pace. From here is up to you if you wear your apron or enjoy the sun in your birthday suit. All attendees are welcome to take an apron home after the event which will be branded with a TNW label.

The Naked Dinner challenges the conventional dining experience, where tables and chairs are replaced with an atmosphere of freedom and exploration. Throughout the afternoon platters will roam with delights and a grazing table available, so you can interact with the other guests and engage in a multitude of activities — one being a naked art wall where guest can use their own body to print onto one big canvas.

At various points in the afternoon, Kaspian will perform the sensual art of Shibari from a 10m bamboo rig.

Guests will be able to request pictures from France Hémon to be shared privately following the event. Other than this, phones and any other devices must be left with your belongings.

This is strictly a non-sexual event.
