Matt Reasor's multi-media artwork is a featured chapter (15 Silver Dollar Pancakes at the Pancake Pantry) in the children's counting and art book, "Nashville Counts!" http://www.hollandbrownbooks.com/Nashville_Counts!.html created by Vadis Turner and Matthew Parker to raise relief funds for flood victims in 2010 along with Hands On Nashville. "Nashville Counts!" partners cultural and historical facts about Nashville, Tennessee with Nashville artists who have created works to illustrate the pages. In 2013, Matt Reasor released the Tennessee Musicians Map [5] , an original art print etching featuring musicians of historic and cultural significance born in Tennessee.
