Souvenirs aren’t just a “thing.” They’re an opportunity to evoke happy memories of your visit to Bishop. To remind you of the fun adventures you had. A way for you to share these experiences with your family and friends. And if that wasn’t enough, by buying a souvenir you can ensure that every dollar goes back to the community.

One Stop Shop

A good place to start is our Bishop Information Center which is located at the front of the Bishop City Park. You can get the scoop on local attractions, pick up maps, and even personal favorites of where to eat in town. Within the cozy A-Frame you’ll also find local-themed items such as books about the region, t-shirts, jewelry, and so much more for that perfect souvenir. Don’t feel like packing it in your bag?

Decorate Your Home

If you enjoy your time in Bishop and its big backyard (and we know you will), find a keepsake that will fit into your décor. Perhaps a beautiful hand-painted bowl for your kitchen. A vintage figurine or a photography-filled coffee table book that reminds you of the views you experienced. Colorful postcards clipped on a salvaged frame. The goal is for these items to instantly brighten your mood and bring back fun memories. Here’s a list of antiques, galleries, and gift shops that you can peruse on your vacation.

Bring Back A Treat

For many friends and family, trinkets are the last thing they want. They’re looking for ways to reduce their clutter. Another option that most forget about – a new favorite treat! If you’re visiting via a road trip, bring back a loaf of Sheepherder from Schat’s Bakery. Pick up some locally roasted coffee beans from your favorite coffee shop in town. Get a six pack from Mountain Rambler Brewery.
