Sarah Cargill is an interdisciplinary artist, cultural worker, podcaster, and spiritual care practitioner who uses the mediums of sound, performance, storytelling, and divination to facilitate experiments in community care and Deep Listening. Inspired by the visionary fiction of Octavia Butler and in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, she launched her podcast Tarot for the End of Times in 2020, which remains as her longest durational experiment in community care to date. Today, it lives on as an educational guide and open resource for those seeking spiritual care during seasons of change.
Sarah is a recipient of the San Francisco Arts Commission's Individual Artist Grant (2020) and has curated interdisciplinary programs for SFMOMA, SOMArts Cultural Center, and the National Queer Arts Festival. Her writing has been published on various platforms including SFMOMA’s former online publication Open Space and Montclair State University’s Peak Performances Journal.
Small Press Traffic is a Bay Area seedbed for poets who push boundaries in the arts. We present programs, publications, and curatorial opportunities with an ethos of radical inclusivity. Committed to this mission since 1974, we highlight diverse, multidisciplinary, and intergenerational practitioners in our public programs, and prioritize equity, accessibility, and collaboration in our working model. SPT also stewards an archive of small press material produced and circulated in the Bay Area over the last half century.
