BIG DRY CREEK MUSEUM

The building that houses the Big Dry Creek Museum was built in 1912 and served as the first bank in Clovis. In 1924, it was the scene of a daring daylight bank robbery in which Thomas Griffin and his partner stole $31,800. With the onset of the great depression in 1929, the bank closed its doors and remained empty for many years. It was later used as the site for the Big Dry Creek Historical Society. Located in Old Town Clovis, the museum is open 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
