Kevin Hicks

I grew up in a small town in the middle of Washington State, moved to Seattle for college, raised a family and lived there most of my life before moving to Manhattan in 2006 … and I have enjoyed every New York Minute!! Even though I’ve lived here over 17 years now (doesn’t that make me a “local”?) I still see our city every day through the eyes of a tourist. I look forward to bringing these stories and more to the pages of Manhattan City Lifestyle Magazine.

Fernando (Nanding) Mendez

Fernando ‘Nanding’ Mendez, an accomplished art director, made his mark in the United States when he founded Special Edition Press, Inc. in 1992 New York City. This venture marked the birth of Special Edition Magazine, which covered political, social, and economic issues crucial to Filipino Americans. Inspired by the magazine’s successful seven-year run, Nanding Mendez expanded into commercial printing, advertising, public relations, property acquisition, and large- scale staged events in New York and Atlantic City. He is regularly cited in the Fil-Am Who’s Who in the USA.

Nanding’s entrepreneurial feats in the U.S. can be traced back to his achievements in commercial art. He won numerous competitions in illustration, painting, graphic design, and print advertising in Manila, earning recognition as the youngest art director at Philippine Advertising Counselors in 1976.

In 1996, Nanding founded the US-Philippines Trade and Cultural Show in New York. The event foreshadowed Fiesta In America which to date has evolved into the largest annual indoor Filipino event on Expo and Cultural Show the U.S. East Coast. The summer extravaganza is a fusion of Philippine music and dance, local products, tourist attractions, real estate and other investment opportunities, native cuisine, and services catering to immigrants. Since its inception 26 years ago, not-for-profit Fiesta In America has drawn over 250,000 attendees, and gained the support of numerous brands from the Philippines, the U.S., and other nations.

Fiesta In America is held annually in Court A of American Dream, the second-largest mall in the USA, situated in East Rutherford, New Jersey. Over 12,000 Filipino Americans are joined at the festival by more than 60,000 consumers from diverse cultures who flock to the mall’s attractions. Alongside his beloved Laura Garcia, Nanding collaborates with the Fiesta In America team and colleagues to organize the People’s Ball, held every August at the Marriott Newark International Airport Hotel. The gala draws in approximately 400 luminaries in the Fil-Am community.

Alert to Fil-Ams’ nostalgia, introduced “Pasko In America” in December 2023 at American Dream, envisioning a yearly Yuletide complement to Fiesta In America.
