NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Aug. 18, 2026 – The Haley Gallery at the Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum presents*uter(us), an art exhibition showcasing the works of printmaker Sarah Matthews, who is also serving as the 2026 Hatch Show Print Visiting Artist. The exhibition, which is free and open to the public beginning the evening of Sept. 18 through Nov. 13, will include a series of letterpress prints and artists' books created at Hatch Show Print.

The exhibition examines women's health through the language of medicine, exploring the words and phrases physicians and nurses use when speaking to patients. It also addresses critical issues including period poverty, the maternal mortality crisis, the pink tax and reproductive healthcare. By transforming medical language into visual narratives, the exhibition invites viewers to confront these disparities, amplifying conversations about bodily autonomy, informed consent and equitable healthcare for all women.

The Hatch Show Print Visiting Artist series invites regionally, nationally or internationally recognized visual artists to explore Hatch Show Print’s collection of type and imagery and collaborate with the shop’s designer-printers to make new work.

All work on view in the Haley Gallery is available for purchase. Prices and details are available upon request.
