Totoro Forest Project

The Totoro Forest Project is an charity auction to help preserve Sayama Forest. This beautiful sanctuary is also known as Totoro Forest, and was where Academy Award-winning animator and director Hayao Miyazaki got the idea for the film “My Neighbor Totoro”.

Pixar Animation Studios will be hosting the art auction on September 06, 2008, which will be featuring over 200 top international artists donating their artwork for this event. All proceeds will go to The Totoro Forest Foundation.

“The 21st century is a complex and unforeseeable epoch. Our thinking habits and our values, which until now looked settled, are being challenged.” – Hayao Miyazaki
