Claudia Volpe – Collection Manager
Claudia Volpe joined the PFF Collection team in November of 2019. As Collection Manager, Claudia oversees the Collection’s operations, facilitates exhibition loans, and manages the Collection’s online presence. She brings with her a passion and advanced working knowledge for systems, an enthusiasm for marketing, and an eagerness to create and maintain relationships with PFF artists and arts organizations.
Born and raised in Chicago, with a family that emigrated from Russia, Volpe’s multi-cultural upbringing situates her interests. Her background has positioned her for particular perspectives that are important to the varied and rich intersectionalities ingrained in African American art.

She comes prepared intellectually and emotionally to enhance the Petrucci Family Foundation mission.
