Where is the Clovis Museum?

We are located at the south-east corner of Pollasky Ave and Fourth Street, in the heart of Old Town Clovis, amid cafes, coffee shops, restaurants, gift shops, tea rooms, delis, flower shops, the Clovis Chamber of Commerce, and antiques stores galore.  A visit to the Clovis Museum can be an adventure for you and your family in this down-town area. 

  Where do we park?

Convenient parking is available along our streets and in the tree-lined Old Town Alley-way between Clovis Avenue and Pollasky Avenue, with entry at Fifth Street; other city provided parking is on the east side of the 300 and 400 blocks of Woodworth Street, with additional parking between Hughes and Clovis Avenue, just one block (and easy walking) east of the Museum (behind the Tarpey Station Tourist Information building).

Clovis Historical Blanket

The blanket is 6 feet by 4 feet, not including a 4 inch fringe all around, with pale to medium blue background; the “Clovis Gateway to the Sierras” sign, which currently spans Clovis Avenue between 4th Street and 5th  Street, is depicted across the top margin; the remaining images, from left to right, top to bottom, are Clovis Cole, with the caption “Clovis M. Cole Wheat King of the U.S.”; “Tarpey Depot 1892”; “Flume from Shaver Lake to Clovis”; green and red street banners depicting antique street lamps, captioned “Old Town Clovis”; in the center our museum is depicted with the caption “Clovis Museum –First State Bank Building 1912”; Pair of Soldiers statues -from the Clovis Memorial Building at Cole and 5th street, honoring our fallen citizens; logo of the Clovis Rodeo Association –Last weekend in April; the historical “Clovis High School -1920”; logo of the City of Clovis.  The bottom edge is emblazoned “Clovis, California -U.S.A." with the American flag in each bottom corner.  Over-all, the blanket is very impressive, not only in looks, but, in it’s ability to capture the essence of Clovis history.
