Lucia Dobranska - Arts & Craft Teacher (Online)

Lucia Pinto has been creating toys and crafts for family and friends since childhood. A born storyteller, Lucia is a preschool teacher, Montessori toy creator, and craft enthusiast of sophisticated and simple objects that inspire and delight young and old alike.

Lucia grew up in Slovakia, but her life and work have taken her around the world both as a visitor and a resident. From her hometown in Slovakia to Dubai, across the sea to New York and back again, Lucia’s exploration and immersion into these places and their cultures influence her work today.

When she isn’t indoors cutting paper, playing with bright colors, or creating toys, she can be found strolling through nature, playing with her two beloved children in the park, or practicing yoga. She resides with her husband and two children, Luca and Anna, in their downtown apartment in Washington DC.
