Craig Paul Nowak
I'm a husband, father, and an artist. I paint, sculpt, draw, and write, amongst other things. I'm a curator. I manage an arts program for people with disabilities, and I've spent nearly 42 years stumbling through space/time.
It all started in 1983, when I was born into a working class family. My parents were factory workers, and I was socially awkward, which led me to take refuge in art. I carried a sketchbook with me at all times.

Norma Gray Gallery
The Norma Gray Gallery is located at the
entrance of the Brighton District Library. The Library serves more than 42,000 residents in the City of Brighton, and Brighton, Genoa, and Green Oak Townships.
The juried exhibition features two artists exhibiting together for six to eight weeks. The 2024 series marked the 25th year for the AAL program.
This venue was rededicated as the Norma Gray Gallery in December 2012 in honor of artist Norma Gray, one of the visionary founders of this exhibit as well as a founder of The Brighton Art Guild.
Gallery Admission and Hours: Free access whenever Brighton District Library is open.
Entry open to all Michigan artists.

Brighton Art Guild’s premier
All Member Juried Art Exhibit
Whether you're on the hunt for a specific artist, medium, or style, we’re here to guide you in finding the perfect pieces to enrich your life.
Art should be a reflection of your personal taste, and remember: art doesn’t need to match anything—it simply needs to speak to you.
With dual intentions as art show and learning experience, the show is juried after hanging, with a juror walk through to provide both critique and insight.
Location for 2025 exhibit TBD.
