Already demolished by the late-1970s, meaning that it closed sometime in the middle part of the decade.

Google updated their addresses, as the theater was located 1525 US-82, Lewisville, AR 71845. The theater is already gone by 1965 as the aerial view from that year shows that the screen was already gone.

Rogers Cinemas took over the Pic Theatre in June 2005 after being independently operated for many years, including the owners of Gartner’s Department Store. One of the owners of that store died six months at old age after the Rogers takeover. The Pic closed as a movie theater in the Fall of 2008 because of failing to compete against the nearby Copper Country Mall Cinemas after 27 years of competing against it.
