Village Pipol Magazine celebrates 18 years; entrepreneur Anna Magkawas graces the cover
On October 15, Village Pipol Magazine marked an important chapter in its media journey with the celebration of its 18th anniversary. The event, held at The Vibe Arcovia, was a showcase of growth, gratitude, and future aspirations, themed “Powered by Roots, Thriving into the Future.” It drew together more than 100 brands, partners, and supporters who have been instrumental in the magazine’s ongoing story.
This milestone was a manifestation of maturity and strategic purpose. The moment served as a reflection of Village Pipol’s evolution. It was an event that was very much like a debut that honors the roots from where it began and a step toward the ambitions lying ahead. It was a night to commemorate the community and collaborations that have been vital in shaping its success.
One of the highlights of the event was Anna Magkawas, a successful female entrepreneur and featured cover personality of the anniversary issue. Her inspiring narrative of resilience and steadfastness is aligned with the event’s slogan, embodying the core message of staying rooted while moving forward.
Anna’s leadership at Luxe Beauty and Wellness Group and her role as a mentor and motivator is a story of authenticity and perseverance. Her feature in the commemorative issue shows the importance of being grounded in one’s beginnings, even as one aims for continuous growth. Her words echo this sentiment. “Success means nothing if you forget the people who were with you from the very beginning. Always stay rooted, remain humble, and never think too highly of yourself,” she said.
Regino Rubi, the Head of Sales and Marketing for Village Pipol, emphasized why Anna was a fitting face for the milestone cover. “She truly deserves to be the main cover. Even now that she’s at the peak of her success, we still see her working with the same people, finding time for her family, and always putting her Luxers at the heart of her business,” Rubi explained.
The celebration’s look, dubbed “Gilded Origins,” radiated elegance with a palette of black, silver, and gold, colors symbolizing resilience and victory. Throughout the evening, attendees exchanged stories and raised toasts.
As Village Pipol moves forward, its dedication to highlighting genuine stories of individuals who succeed by remaining true to their roots. As it advances, the magazine continues to nurture its foundational values of credibility, creativity, and connection.
