Totoro Forest Project

Once again, Josh is on top of his links and information. This website is the home of the Totoro Forest Project. "Tonari no Totoro," or "My Neighbor Totoro," is a wonderful Japanese children's film by Hayao Miyazaki about the spirit of the forest helping some young girls find comfort in their new home. It's one of my favorite movies ever, I even have a Totoro and two Catbuses.

Now the forest where Miyazaki got the inspiration for Totoro is falling under the threat of urban development, and artists from around the world (including Studio Ghibli and Pixar Studios) have gotten together to create an amazing auction and exhibit. There's no way I'll be able to bid on these pieces, but they're amazing to see.
