This grandly scaled work by Charles Mason III is made entirely of Mason’s earlier prints and drawings reconstituted as raw material, together with paint-soaked garments.

“three the long way (every shot, every failure, still leading with love)” is a dedication to Mason’s late grandmother, Lois Martha Lewis (1931-2022), memorializing her and the lifelong support and love she had for her family. The large work symbolizes her love and encouragement while using social and material abstraction to evoke grief, loss, mourning, and care.

Special thanks to all who came out in support of our program.

The Last Resort Artist Retreat (TLRAR) is an international residency based in Baltimore MD that invites four individuals for a six-week long cohort - creatives occupying space in the visual, sound-based, movement-based, culinary, and literary arts, as well as entrepreneurs whose interests seek to enrich the arts. Like many, we believe the creative community elevates society, and to foster this, we find leisure and communion with others a natural transmitting process for human growth.

Charm City Cultural Cultivation (Charmccc) is a 501c3 non-profit anchor organization with three core programs; Zora’s Den, The Last Resort Artist Retreat, Black Baltimore Digital Database. Our headquarters also serves as a hub for additional art and cultural programming that engages with the concerns of the general community, with consideration to our overall interests in working towards outcomes that benefit the city and its citizens at large. We welcome collaboration with like minded organizations as well as with allies who understand the importance of our mission, as we continue to analyze the landscape of the cultural ecosystem, locally, nationally and internationally.

Special thanks to all who came out in support of our program.

The Last Resort Artist Retreat (TLRAR) is an international residency based in Baltimore MD that invites four individuals for a six-week long cohort - creatives occupying space in the visual, sound-based, movement-based, culinary, and literary arts, as well as entrepreneurs whose interests seek to enrich the arts. Like many, we believe the creative community elevates society, and to foster this, we find leisure and communion with others a natural transmitting process for human growth.

Charm City Cultural Cultivation (Charmccc) is a 501c3 non-profit anchor organization with three core programs; Zora’s Den, The Last Resort Artist Retreat, Black Baltimore Digital Database. Our headquarters also serves as a hub for additional art and cultural programming that engages with the concerns of the general community, with consideration to our overall interests in working towards outcomes that benefit the city and its citizens at large. We welcome collaboration with like minded organizations as well as with allies who understand the importance of our mission, as we continue to analyze the landscape of the cultural ecosystem, locally, nationally and internationally.
