About LeartWorld – Creative Art Space for Children in Sant Gervasi, Barcelona
Us
In our creative space we work to stimulate the imagination and open a new sensitivity towards art through gesture, colors, materials and elements. We welcome error with open arms because we firmly believe that process is more important for children's development than DaVincian perfection; However, we guide and accompany them and we address techniques to improve their motor and artistic skills, respecting their decisions and styles so that they themselves discover their own individual approach.
Our goal is to stimulate the right hemisphere of the brain, where non-verbal expressions, emotions and spatial vision are regulated. This initiative encourages empathy and creativity in young people, so that they can make the world a better place for tomorrow.
My name is Léa, although my little ones usually call me “Leis.” I gladly welcome any other creative nickname as well.
French, with Latin roots, a graduate of the British School, holding a degree in Visual Arts and a Master’s in Publishing/Languages and another in Art Curatorship. I combine my academic background and professional knowledge of art with my great passion for children’s art education.
I have worked at the Picasso Museum in Barcelona, where I experienced art from its core: the museums and their collections. This experience, together with 6 years teaching children, allows me to share creativity from a professional and approachable perspective, helping children understand and enjoy art.
My approach combines creativity, personal expression, and multilingual learning, offering workshops in several languages that foster imagination, confidence, and authentic artistic exploration.

Our location connects us to the local artistic community and allows us to develop projects with different educational centers in the area, such as Escola de Música Joana Pons, as well as participate in activities and birthday celebrations with Un Pam de Nas, providing artistic and cultural experiences for children.
Additionally, we are at the end of the same street as the British School of Barcelona, making us especially accessible for international families looking for a safe, nearby, and inspiring space for their children’s artistic learning.
