    The Sonora Writers Group invites the community to an evening of creativity, storytelling, and connection at the Poetry & Prose Crawl on Friday, June 5, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM in downtown Sonora. This engaging, multi-venue literary event will unfold across four unique locations, featuring live performances, open mic opportunities, and engaging poetry and prose for all ages. Attendees are invited to bring their own original work to share during open mic sessions throughout the evening. Stroll from venue to venue and experience a rich variety of styles—from cowboy poetry and spoken word to youth competitions and children’s readings. Whether you're a writer ready to share your work, a poetry enthusiast eager to listen, or simply curious, there’s something here for everyone.
