Mod Market

The next feature we have is the fabulous Christina Bair!🐘♥️🦒

Christina Bair began volunteering at MOD Market in late 2020, bringing with her a natural talent for decorating, merchandising, and warm, welcoming customer service. Her contributions played a significant role in the store’s overall appearance, eye-catching window displays, and in helping customers understand and connect with the mission behind MOD Market. Christina’s years of generous volunteer support eventually led to a small paid role about a year ago—an acknowledgment of the expertise, care, and consistency she brought to MOD Market week after week.

Christina’s involvement was inspired by her son, Nick Bair, a MOD Market artist who has been part of the market from the very beginning. Volunteering also gave Christina the opportunity to support Nick as he worked alongside her at MOD Market. As Nick’s confidence and comfort grew, Christina thoughtfully stepped back, allowing him the space to build independence while continuing to thrive.

Generosity defines Christina in every sense. She has freely given her time and talents to MOD Market, Living and Learning, and numerous special projects along the way. As Nick’s mom and business manager, she has been nothing short of extraordinary—guiding and supporting his art business as it has flourished during his time at MOD Market. Christina is a rare combination of keen intellect, a calming presence, a thoughtful communicator, and a truly generous heart.

While Nick’s continued personal and professional growth will undoubtedly keep Christina busy, we know that both she and Nick carry with them an extended family formed through their time at MOD Market—a community that will always be proud to support them.

First up we have our amazing Assistant Manager, Shelly Boynton! 🥳
