Ran by volunteers each day from about 10 am - 2 pm, Clovis - Big Dry Creek Museum has to be one of my favorite museums in the Fresno & Clovis area.
The museum is fairly little, it sits around a small little corner on Polasky and 5th. The museum has a rich history of it being an old municipal court as well as an old bank (that was robbed which then turned into a court).
Inside you'll find a couple volunteers, for us it was the Wednesday volunteers, Mary & Doug, and they were the most precious and nicest people we've ever met. Both of them have been in Clovis since they were born, and they actually had their yearbook photos in one of the rooms!

Only bad thing was the site was small compared to how much stuff they have with all the people going through & their was some broken glass near the last room so sadly we weren't able to see. Other than that it was fantastic seeing so many things from Clovis history like class photos, clothing, some agricultural stuff, & military. It was great to see everything firsthand, they had several things from WWI & I believe like 3 dedications/pictures from soldiers that were KIA in Fallujah. Also the various weapons from German grenades to a Japanese weapon. Very interesting! Can't wait to go back & possibly take some more time looking...

A lot of history. This is a volunteer run facility allowing it to be free admission. The site is very small and what is in there is packed in. That being said, it is limited with displays that dont change. There isnt anything more recent as well either. I understand all.of this, just wish there was another museum to highlight so much more of the...
