A Relic of the Past Becomes a Beacon for the Future
In September, the Ritz Theatre and Museum will celebrate its 20th anniversary, marking the 1999 construction on the site of the Ritz Movie House in Jacksonville’s historic African-American community of LaVilla. Essentially, it is a 90-year old establishment, but for decades the interior was in ruins. The Ritz will host a month-long schedule of programming, including community awards to commemorate past trailblazers and to celebrate today’s volunteers. They will also hold events throughout the year. Business Development Manager Vanessa Davis says, “The Ritz is not only keeping alive memories in history but is also looking to bring this priceless cultural legacy into the future.”
