United Artists downgraded the Ayers to a one dollar, discount sub-run house. It closed with “Willow” on September 5, 1988. It closed the same day that the venerable Centre Theatre closed.

The Ayers had it’s grand opening on Sep 1, 1947. There was a full page ad and a newspaper article in the Aug 29, 1947 Corpus Christi Caller-Times newspaper. The first movie shown was “Miracle on 34th Street”.

In August of 2009, the Solid Rock Church went through a remodeling and they auctioned off many of the old theater seats.
