About Us

Collage Specialty Shop is has been a staple in the York community since the early 1980’s, and is considered a “landmark” and a must-see for visitors. Located on South George Street next to York College and across the street from York Hospital, Collage has many times been voted “Best of York.” In the 1980’s Janice Bortner, former owner of Collage, envisioned new ideas in merchandising unusual products and began carrying cutting edge items that were fashionable, trendy and fun. Since that time Collage continues to grow and evolve as the unique shopping experience you will find today.

In and around premiere brands such as Vera Bradley, Chamilia, Trollbeads, Big Buddha, Thymes, Michael Aram, Simon Pearce, and Stonewall Kitchen you will find an ever-changing selection of affordable luxuries: beautiful women’s accessories and clothing, indulgent toiletries, adorable children’s gifts and clothing, side-splitting novelties, gourmet specialty foods, and an extensive and eclectic selection of greeting cards. Collage is also home to Wandering Eyes Optical where you’ll find some of the most unique new and vintage eyewear in town.

Within walking distance from downtown York, Collage has been a strong part of the community since it’s beginning, and a destination shop for generations. As if the awesome shopping experience isn’t enough, Collage is strongly dedicated to promoting and supporting the arts and local charitable organizations.
