The 34 Gallery.
Partnership.

Portraits de Famille Joins The 34 Gallery for a Mission of Art and Well-Being.
Portraits de Famille is proud to partner with The 34 Gallery, part of the SDG 3.4 Mission by Simuka Africa, a beacon of hope since 2006 aiding at-risk youth, families, and child marriage survivors in Zimbabwe through educational programs and vocational training. This collaboration aligns with our commitment to exclusive fashion and creative expression, fostering mental health and well-being through art. We’re excited to join this initiative under the Agenda 2030 SDG 3: Good Health & Well-Being framework, emphasizing global mental health. Together, we aim to inspire positive change.
The 34 Gallery: A Beacon of Hope for Mental Health.
The 34 Gallery, an initiative by Simuka Africa Youth Association, is part of the Agenda 2030 SDG 3: Good Health & Well-Being mission, focusing on global mental health. Since its founding in 2006, Simuka Africa has supported at-risk youth, families, and child marriage survivors in Zimbabwe through programs like vocational training and the Norton Library. The 34 Gallery, led by founding director Ezekiel Zekiya Mudimu and curator Magdalene, a United Nations Volunteers online supervisor, recognizes the arts’ role in fostering self-care, self-esteem, and self-awareness. Their monthly Art Therapy Open Calls in 2025 feature 20–30 artists virtually, amplifying mental health awareness through creative expression.
Art as a Tool for Well-Being.
After extensive work with at-risk youth and young adults, Simuka Africa has seen firsthand how art promotes mental clarity and emotional balance. The 34 Gallery’s SDG 3.4 Mission emphasizes this by using art to address mental health stigmas and encourage self-care, aligning with Portraits de Famille’s ethos. At our core, creative expression drives our exclusive fashion collections, from designing new pieces to curating visual experiences. These acts are therapeutic, fostering mental well-being for both our team and community. This partnership allows us to extend this philosophy, offering a canvas for expression that resonates with the future of fashion through meaningful creativity.
Creative Expression at Portraits de Famille.
Creative expression is central to Portraits de Famille’s identity and personal well-being. Designing new collections, collaborating with artists, and curating visual experiences are not just artistic endeavors, they’re therapeutic acts that promote mental clarity and balance. Whether crafting a piece from our The Essentials capsule or envisioning a new exclusive drop, these processes allow us to connect deeply with our craft. We strive to share this experience with our community, offering a source of inspiration through rare fashion that encourages self-expression. This partnership with The 34 Gallery amplifies our mission, blending exclusive fashion with mental health advocacy.
A Shared Vision for Positive Change.
This partnership with The 34 Gallery is a testament to Portraits de Famille’s social commitment. Together, we aim to make a meaningful impact by harnessing the power of creative expression to inspire positive change. By combining our expertise in exclusive fashion with The 34 Gallery’s focus on mental health, we’re creating a platform where art and fashion intersect to foster well-being. Our collaboration reflects the future of exclusivity in fashion, where limited-edition pieces with pre-established quantities, like those in our exclusive drops, carry deeper narratives of empowerment and community, resonating with audiences who value authenticity and purpose.
Why This Partnership Redefines Exclusive Fashion.
Our collaboration with The 34 Gallery redefines the future of exclusivity in fashion by merging fashion with social impact. Unlike traditional fashion initiatives, this partnership emphasizes transparency and meaning, much like our exclusive drops that come in pre-established quantities, ensuring true rarity with full verification. The 34 Gallery’s virtual exhibitions, featuring 20–30 artists monthly, provide a global stage for our rare fashion to shine alongside art that promotes mental health. This approach aligns with our slow fashion ethos, prioritizing quality and purpose, and positions Portraits de Famille as the pioneer among exclusive fashion brands.
The Impact of Art on Mental Health.
The 34 Gallery’s mission highlights the transformative power of art on mental health, a cause Portraits de Famille deeply supports. Through their SDG 3.4 Mission, Simuka Africa uses art therapy to educate about the mental health crisis, self-care, and the benefits of art for youth development. This resonates with our belief that fashion, as a form of creative expression, can also foster emotional well-being. By partnering with The 34 Gallery, we’re contributing to a global dialogue on mental health, using exclusive fashion to inspire self-awareness and balance within our community, shaping the future of fashion with purpose.
