Custom Granite Civic Monuments in Florida : Honoring Leaders, preserving civic history, custom-built for Florida communities.

Florida’s civic identity is shaped by political leadership, cultural diversity, scientific innovation, environmental stewardship, Tribal Nation heritage, and vibrant community engagement. From Miami and Tampa to Orlando, Jacksonville, Tallahassee, Pensacola and the Florida Keys, communities across the state commemorate influential individuals and historic events through thoughtfully designed civic monuments.

At Picture This On Granite (PG Memorials), we proudly create custom granite civic monuments that honor Florida’s leaders, cultural contributors, historic milestones and public achievements. Each monument is fully personalized, crafted from premium granite, and designed to bring Florida’s civic stories to life.

Supporting Civic, Cultural & Historical Organizations in Florida

Florida has a strong network of organizations dedicated to preserving public history, supporting community storytelling and documenting civic contributions. These groups often collaborate with municipalities, educational institutions and public committees — making them valuable references when planning civic monuments.

• Florida Historical Society (FHS) : The state’s oldest cultural organization, dedicated to preserving and promoting Florida’s civic, cultural and political history through archives, exhibitions and public programs.
• Florida Humanities : A statewide nonprofit supporting civic education, cultural storytelling, historical interpretation, public dialogue and community heritage projects across Florida.
• Florida Trust for Historic Preservation : A statewide preservation organization that protects Florida’s civic landmarks, historical structures and heritage sites while supporting local preservation initiatives.

These organizations reflect Florida’s commitment to honoring its civic legacy — a mission closely aligned with custom civic monuments.
