Sarah Lewis
Age: 28
Representing: Curve Lake First Nation
Hometown: Curve Lake First Nation, ON
Sarah Lewis is an Ojibwe and Cree spoken word poet, mother, activist and author from Curve Lake FN. She is a Trent U Alumni and most recently served as Peterborough's Inaugural Poet Laureate from 2021-2022. Sarah has been featured on CBC Arts, Global News, and stages across the world. Her poetry is birthed from an unapologetic woman sick of a colonial, capitalistic, sexist society, who feels we can use our voices to dismantle and break free from these harmful systems. When Sarah is not performing poetry, you can find her in meditation, in ceremony, hiking in the forest, reading or running.
