Custom Photo Slates for Canton, Ohio
Made by hand, here in Ohio — for a town that lives in its community.
Handcrafted one at a time in Coshocton, Ohio — and shipped to Canton, Ohio.
A town built on Friday nights and the people who stayed
Canton is a town with a long memory and a loud one. This is a place where the whole town knows the schedule, where the band parents and the boosters and the grandparents all show up, and where a family name carries across generations. The reunion happens every summer, the same park, the same shelter. And when somebody in the family passes, the room is full.
We make keepsakes for exactly those moments, and we make them here in Ohio. Every slate is a real slab of natural stone, printed with your photograph and finished by hand — one piece at a time, in Coshocton, roughly an hour and a half up the road. The chiseled edge is left raw, the surface is matte with no glare, and the finished piece sits on a mantel or a shelf where the whole family walks past it every day.
An Ohio shop, making them for an Ohio town
We will say this proudly rather than carefully: Albritton's Art™ is an Ohio small business. Every piece is handcrafted in Coshocton — that is a real workshop, not a warehouse — and then shipped, so a Canton order does not travel far. There is no storefront on our end in Canton and we will never claim one. There is one bench, and there is the post.
Keepsakes that are especially meaningful here carry a lot of community in them. The football-season family photo, everybody in the same colors, the grandparents in the middle. Family reunions and the group shot from the park. Weddings and milestone anniversaries, including the ones built from a photograph taken forty years ago. High school and college graduations — this is a town that marks a diploma properly. Senior tributes with a whole career underneath — the years, the rank, the department. First responder and veteran pieces. And memorials, made slowly and with care, for the parents and grandparents whose names the family still says every week.
Handcrafted in Coshocton, Ohio · shipped to Canton, Ohio. Every slate is made by hand, one at a time, in a single workshop — there is no second location and no storefront in Canton.

Real finished pieces
What yours will look like
Every one of these is a real slate we made, photographed on its display stand. The stone is split from nature, so no two edges are ever the same.
How it works
Four simple steps, one lasting keepsake.
Send us your photo
Text or email the digital photo you want on slate — the original file from your camera or gallery, if you can find it. Higher resolution prints better, but send what you have and we will tell you honestly how it will look on the stone.
We prepare the design — you approve it first
We lay out the photo, and any names, dates, or words you would like with it. We show it to you before anything is made. Nothing is printed until you say it is right.
Printed on stone, hand-finished in Coshocton
Once you approve it, the image is printed onto natural slate and hand-finished in our Coshocton, Ohio workshop. Because the stone is split from nature, every chiseled edge is a little different — no two pieces are alike.
Shipped to your door
Your finished keepsake is boxed with its display stand and sent to your address, ready to set out the moment you open it. Nothing to frame, nothing to assemble.
