The OK Theatre opened around 1918. It was renamed Vista Theatre in 1933 and reverted back to the OK Theatre name on May 1, 1982. It closed as a regular movie theatre on December 28, 2008 with the animated feature “Bolt”.
Movies continued to be screened on occasions, usually on a repertory basis and live performances began to take over, which continue today.

The venue was purchased by Russell Fordwho changed it back to the OK Theatre beginning on May 1, 1982. The venue closed as a regular movie house with “Bolt” on December 28, 2008. It reopened with a mixture of repertory and special programming films and live events. It then shifted to live events only thereafter.
