Acclaimed Poet Sarah Kay Inspired a Standing Room Only Audience at SUNY Ulster 

April 10, 2026 – Stone Ridge, NY – Sarah Kay, known for her powerful, fun, and honest performances delivered a series of poems interwoven with personal anecdotes at SUNY Ulster to a packed audience of SUNY Ulster students, high school students, faculty, staff, and community members.

Her poems explored themes of identity, relationships, and personal growth that garnered laughter, reflection, and extended applause throughout the event. Her reading was followed by a thoughtful series of moderator and audience questions that offered insight into her creative process, emphasizing the importance of storytelling as a way to understand oneself, others, and the world around us.

When asked about her inspiration, Sarah explained, “The act of reaching for poetry is something I’ve done my whole life. I turn to it when there’s something I’m trying to figure out and I’m having a hard time figuring it out. It might be an interpersonal relationship, people, memories, or something in the news. I say, okay, I might have to poem my way through this.”

Kay’s visit was part of SUNY Ulster’s ongoing commitment to bringing arts and cultural programming to campus to enrich students and the community.
