ABOUT.

Early in her career, Sarah Kammerer sat in rooms with the powerful, watching how things got done, how personalities impacted a project, and how inklings of feelings can become national movements. She then moved to the other side of the world to work alongside women perceived as powerless, watching what happens when you ask someone about their experience, how they would change it and then supporting them through that process. Since returning to Chicago, her chosen home, she’s sought to practice what she learned about power in these two vastly different settings and build strong communities to drive change.

While many know her photography practice, gathering is Sarah’s art form. Whether it’s a nonprofit strategy session, a political fundraiser, or an impromptu potluck, Sarah is at her best when she’s bringing people together over shared experiences, hope for the future, and the confidence that something great will happen just by being together.
