STARTPOINT 09
Start Point v sedmém roce své existence zahrnuje již 33 škol z 15 zemí. Na každé škole vybere tříčlenná komise, složená ze dvou zástupců poroty a jednoho místního pedagoga, „nejlepší“ diplomovou práci.
V den vernisáže porota vybírá konečného vítěze, který bude odměněn rezidenčním pobytem na Klenové a samostatnou výstavou s katalogem. V letošním roce porota uděluje poprvé i několik vedlejších cen.
