CCPATCH is a legitimate non-profit that was organized to restore The Ritz. All of our meetings are open to the public, and are posted on our web site. The agendas are also posted. We have been working with The League of Historic American Theatres to make sure that the restoration is done the right way. The owner will not donate the theatre to us unless we do a full-scale historic restoration. Please visit our web site at http://www.ccpatch.org and judge for yourself. I welcome any comments and advice. We also have several members of arts groups on our board of directors. The Arts and Cultural Commision as well as the Corpus Christi Concert Ballet are represented. We also have one member who has organized the Festival of the Arts and is involved with the Jazz Society.

Currently, the non-profit corporation PATCH is trying to acquire the theatre for a full restoration. The owner has pledged to donate the theatre to the non-profit. We are in negotiations and are waiting for the contract to be complete and signed. If you have any history, photos, information or anything that can help us reach our goal, please contact Monica Sawyer, PATCH founder, at 361-887-5054 or
