Linnea Vaglienti (Fitterer) is from Southern Minnesota where she first formed values of loyalty, observation, and independence. Growing up on a vast prairie, her roots encouraged exploration and creativity.

Fitterer studied Art History at Minnesota State University Moorhead. There she expanded her understanding of the role of art and artists in society. Her undergraduate thesis work, titled Curating As An Artistic Practice, argued the responsibilities of art administrators require as much creative vision and technique as the art and artists they support.

She completed her graduate studies at the University of Indianapolis in Social Practice Art. Through the program she honed in on values of human-scale engagement and further investigated dialogue as an art form. These strategies inspired her podcast project, Arranged Encounters.

Vaglienti is an artist, administrator, and educator with leadership in non-profit program management, socially engaged art, and creative placemaking. Through practice, Vaglienti applies a devotion to ethical community engagement, industry safety, and cross-sector collaboration.
