More than 700 pieces of student art and 60 professional pieces are on display at the Clovis Veterans Memorial District Building in Clovis through Wednesday.

Through a partnership between Clovis Veterans Memorial District and Clovis Art Guild, Clovis Unified students in kindergarten through sixth grade and professional artists were asked to submit artwork addressing this year's theme, "Voices from Home," for their Veterans Day-inspired art contest.

The artwork will serve as a focal point for Clovis Veterans Memorial District's Veterans Day program Wednesday at 808 Fourth St. in Clovis. Public viewing of the art will take place that day from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. with a ceremony at 11 a.m.
