Q:
Does the museum offer annual memberships to individuals? I want to visit the museum on different days and I hope to not pay the full price everytime. In the US, Italy, or other places, museums offer annual membership for unlimited visits. Some memberships even allow a friend to come along with the member, like at the San Francisco Museums of Fine Arts. I have read the museum's website but could not find the answer. Thank you for your time.
