Nestled in the small town of Aitkin, MN, with less than 2200 citizens, stands a treasure. The Rialto has stood for family entertainment in this town for over 80 years. It's owner, Kirk, recently celebrated his 42nd anniversary with the theater, showing it incredible love through the years. I was able to speak with Kirk about the history of his theater, and the way the community comes together to support it. Only a couple hours north of Minneapolis, it is well worth the drive!
