The Totoro Forest Project is an international charity effort to save Sayama Forest on the outskirts of Tokyo, which was Hayao Miyazaki's inspiration for the film "Tonari No Totoro" (My Neighbor Totoro). They will be auctioning off works from over 200 international artists to raise funds for this charity on September 6th at Pixar in Emeryville, and be showcasing the artwork at the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco. Because there are so many pieces, the artwork will be split into two exhibitions: Exhibition A will run from September 20th to December 7th, while Exhibition B will run from November 6th to February 20th. A book/catalogue of the artwork will be released on September 6th to coincide with the auction.
