WALK: Into the Crucible – with artist Garry Fabian Miller and writer Fiona Williams
Dartmoor Tors Festival 2026
Sunday 3 May, 10am - 1pm, Dunstone Down
How do places feed our creativity? ‘The Crucible’ is an imagined circle around the Dartmoor home of photographer Garry Fabian Miller, where he has walked daily for nearly 40 years. It is the source of the pictures he has made, coming from his experiences in this place. For writer Fiona Williams, the West Country landscape plays a similarly critical role in the genesis and development of her creative practice as seen in her debut novel, The House of Broken Bricks.
Join Garry and Fiona for a walk into the heart of the Crucible, along the great ridge of Hameldown. They will share their thoughts on our relationship to place, home, nature and culture, and how this feeds into our imaginative life.

Dartmoor Tors Festival, now in its second year, brings together walkers, thinkers, creatives who are interested in natural landscapes and how we relate to them. It is a celebration of the power and beauty of places seen as wild and ancient around Britain, and an exploration of why and how they provoke a response.
