On Saturday, May 6, the Churchill Arts Council will host an artist talk and reception for Emily Najera and Michelle Laxalt.

Laxalt, formerly of Reno, will be exhibiting “The Soft Animal of Your Body,” which consists of ceramic sculpture and works on paper. Laxalt, who finished graduate school at Georgia West State University, resides in Atlanta.

Emily Najera is a visual storyteller based in Reno. Her research as a photographer examines forms of architecture as vernacular artifacts. Partnering with historic preservationists and urban planners, Emily documents and archives the changing landscape of city neighborhoods.

The artists’ talks begin at 5:30 p.m., with exhibitions on display in the E. L. Wiegand & Kirk Robertson Galleries through June 17. These exhibitions are also available for private viewing by calling 775-423-1440 or emailing [email protected]. For more information, visit www.churchillarts.org.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
