Bare and Gay of Connecticut is a private social club for male gay naturists.  Formed in March, 1986, B&G was one of the first successful nudist clubs for men in the Northeast.  

Our club’s members hail from throughout the region and represent all ages, occupations and economic status. Although, our club is named Bare & Gay, one’s choice of sexual identity does not exclude membership.  Our main objective is that our members are comfortable being naked in a social, friendly atmosphere with men, whether gay, bi or straight.  As our name denotes, however, the main core of our membership is made up of gay men.

Members of B&G recognize that participation in our group may involve two issues for new members - the individual’s comfort level with joining a gay-identified organization and attending a nude event for the first time. For those reasons, we are sensitive to the needs of new members for whom either issue or both issues are first time experiences.  Confidentiality is respected.

The success of our organization is dependent on our member participation in attending house party events and on those members who are in a position to open up their homes to host events.
