The Welsh Yemeni Photo Archive is held among the NLW photographic collection. There are images of the Cardiff Yemen Week of Events in 1994 and its adverising pamphlet. Followed in 1995 by the Welsh-Yemeni Festival in the ACW Oriel Gallery in Cardiff. This was an exhibition of Welsh crafts attended by the Yemen ambassador to Britain, which was sent out to Yemen along with Welsh crwth and harp musicians, and a Welsh food festival to the Yemeni capital in Sana’a at the end of the year. This was a great success and there are many press cuttings in English, Welsh & Arabic.
