We are thankful to have you as a member of the Miho Museum. Since its founding in September 1998 to the 2000 fiscal year, more than 6,500 people have become members of the Museum. Our staff extends its deepest appreciation to you for making the Museum's membership program such a success.
    In order to improve efficiency, we will begin to replace the previously issued membership cards with magnetic ones. You can use these new cards for as long as you are a member of the Museum. When visiting the museum, a museum attendant will ask to check your card to make sure that your membership is current.
    We will continue to make more efforts to improve museum services for our members and we deeply appreciate your cooperation. Thank you for your patronage.
