Description: “Miss Navida’s here!" The familiar refrain as a child looks out of the classroom and sees Miss Navida arriving with her instruments and afternoon of fun.
“Miss Navida’s here! Miss Navida’s here!”, is a familiar refrain as one child pokes their head out of the classroom and sees Miss Navida coming down the hall carrying her keyboard and rhythm instruments. “Miss Navida’s here!” is a call to action for the class to push back the desks, find their own space and get ready to be a part of the stories and music Miss Navida has to share that day.
Miss Navida has been telling stories and singing songs with children of all ages for many years! Her performances and workshops take place in schools, libraries, community centers, museums, parks and in partnerships with arts organizations.
Miss Navida has been awarded a 2014 Creative Curricula Grant from the Lower Manhattan Cultural Council .
