A quest for meaning
We live in a world full of meaning
We can find meaning in moments
of creativity collaboration and connection
Life doesn’t come with a manual
We can build a library of moments
We can keep a daily diary of development
and use each moment as a starting point for
guides to what we’ve learnt and
maps to find our way forward
The library of moments from walks in development has
100’s of moments guides and maps and a daily diary
all on the back of a postcard!
We are all in development
We can keep a diary to see how our moments feed us like leaves feed a tree
The Library of Moments from Walks in Development includes
daily moments that feed guides and maps to the weeks and months ahead
– forming an annual cycle of development
Every moment invites further development
We can collect the moments we experience
Each moment in the Library of Moments from walks in development
comes with questions to explore,
reflections to guide us
and suggestions to map our way forward
When we share moments they become more meaningful
Please take a moment to share
Guides help us navigate difficult times
We can be our own guides
We can make guides by walking through
the three phases, perspectives and themes of development:
~ beginning (past) ~ middle (present) ~ end (future)
~ ourselves ~ other people ~ the wider world
~ creativity ~ collaboration ~ connection
The library of moments from walks in development includes guides
to help us value, navigate and organise our moments
Every moment feeds us like leaves feed a tree
We can map out our library like a tree
that branches out according to
the three phases, perspectives and themes of development:
~ beginning (past) ~ middle (present) ~ end (future)
~ ourselves ~ other people ~ the wider world
~ creativity ~ collaboration ~ connection
The library of moments from walks in development includes maps
to help develop our research, practice and plans
Every moment contributes towards our shared library of moments

“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)
