MEET WINNIE TATAW THE “ART FAIRY” OF THE FERIA
Meet Winnie Tataw, the enchanting "Art Fairy" of The Feria! Winnie is not only the co-founder of The Feria but also the owner of Win's Books and Win's Artistry and the visionary behind Win's Books Publishing. With a heart that beats for fantasy, art, and magic, her journey as an artist is nothing short of extraordinary. For over five years, Winnie has gracefully fluttered through the world of art and creativity, channeling her passion into every piece and project she undertakes.
Driven by her love for community and the boundless creativity of artists, Winnie wanted to create The Feria as a haven for artisans and crafters nationwide. Her mission is to connect artists, support their incredible work, and let the magic of collaboration and creativity blossom. At The Feria, Winnie ensures a whimsical experience where visitors can explore a unique selection of bookish, magical, and fairy-inspired arts and crafts.
Winnie's dedication to her craft and her community is a testament to her belief in the power of art and the connections it fosters!
MEET ANANDA HICKS THE “CREATIVE MAGE” OF THE FERIA
Meet Ananda Hicks, the enchanting force behind The Feria, affectionately known as the “Creative Mage.” As an editor and passionate book lover with a personal library boasting over 300 books, Ananda finds inspiration in the worlds of fantasy and whimsy. Her love for storytelling extends beyond the pages, as she also crafts imaginative costumes that bring characters to life.
Ananda is not just a dreamer but a doer, orchestrating the behind-the-scenes magic that makes The Feria a thriving haven for artisans and crafters across the nation. Her vision for The Feria was born out of a deep desire to support talented small businesses and artists who often struggle to sustain themselves in a world saturated with mass-produced "art."
With an unwavering commitment to artistic freedom and personal expression, Ananda champions the cause of genuine creators, ensuring they have a platform to shine. She invites you to explore The Feria, where each visit is a journey into a realm of creativity and discovery, guided by Ananda’s passionate dedication to nurturing a community where art can truly blossom.

At The Feria, we believe in the power of art to inspire and transform. Our vision is to build a diverse and inclusive space where every artist feels valued and celebrated.
