Arts in Development

Creativity     Collaboration     Connection

~~~

In development we support each other to live meaningful lives
by building Libraries of Moments

~~~

Life doesn’t come with a manual

~~~

In a Library of Moments we collect and share anything we find meaningful

~~~

We build our Libraries of Moments by making reminders of meaningful moments
and producing guides and maps to help us learn from our experience

~~~

I’m delighted to share my library of moments which has
100’s of moments guides and maps
all on the back of a postcard!

Moments

We all have a wealth of experience to draw on

~ 

Moments are the steps on our journey
 the meaningful experiences, thoughts and ideas that occur to us

The more we share our moments the more meaningful they become 

~ 

Our library of meaningful moments 
includes starting points, reflections and invitations
for further development. 

Guides

Walking is a natural guide 

~

Every moment we experience impacts on
ourselves, other people and the wider world

Our guides help us balance these perspectives
by  noticing how our focus shifts 
when we go for a walk

~

Create your own guides to:
Value your experience
Navigate complexity and change
Find a positive way forward. 

~

Sometimes all we need is someone to walk alongside us

I would be happy to walk alongside you
and help you build your own Library of Moments

We are always in development

~

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

We are all in development
walking parallel paths
and asking the same questions along the way 

~

Our ongoing journal has daily moments and weekly guides and maps

It helps us connect our development journeys
so that every moment we experience
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)
