Arts in Development

create  collaborate  connect
so everyone can live a meaningful life

~~~

In development every moment matters…

~~~

Building a Library of Moments
keeps us creative, collaborative and connected

~~~ 

To build a Library of Moments
Simply reflect on significant moments,
make guides to learn from our experience
and maps to find our way forward

~~~

The library of moments from walks in development has
100’s of moments guides and maps
all on the back of a postcard!

Moments

Moments are the steps on our journey
 the meaningful experiences, thoughts and ideas that occur to us
every moment can be a starting point for further development.

~ 

Build a Library of Moments
to collect everything we have learnt 
and everything we want to learn

~ 

Keep a record of anything in development, 
any outstanding issues, questions, tasks and ideas
Reflect on these moments at the start of each day
Choose which moments to focus on next

Guides

We are all in development
Building a Library of Moments is a genuinely collaborative activity
something we can all engaged in on an equal basis

~

 Identifying the moments we want to experience
helps us design activities that are meaningful for everyone
The more we share our moments the more meaningful they become

~

We can develop our moments by going for a walk

As we walk we consider how
every moment we experience impacts on
ourselves, other people and the wider world

and allow the moments we experience to guide us 

~

The Walks in Development Library of Moments includes guides to:
Value your experience
Navigate complexity and change
Find a positive way forward. 

Maps are a simple way to organise all our development
They help create the connection
that makes our actions meaningful

~

Create your own maps to:
Gather your research
Develop your practice
Make long-term plans

Our ongoing journal has daily moments and weekly guides and maps

It helps us connect our journeys so that every moment 
feeds into our long-term development
as individuals, groups and communities

Every moment matters

Every moment contributes towards our shared library of moments

Every contribution counts

Thank you for your support and encouragement!

“I recommend Arts In Development as a tool for individuals and organisations, for one-to-one and cooperative working; his holistic approach helps untangle knots and brings out strengths with great positivity”  (Tara Downs, Miniature Museum )

“David is quietly rebellious and innovative and has created a new model of creative development, based on walks.  I’d recommend diving in deep to explore his approach”  (Elspeth Penny, 2BU Productions)

Walks in development have been a source of exploration, a way to connect with other creatives and an amazing space for self discovery.  David has a unique ability to create warm and welcoming environments that provide equal measures of support and motivation”  (Grace Kress, ShelbyXStudios)
