## Resource

Round Rock is honoring a true Texas legend with a historic marker for Barbette, the groundbreaking aerialist who dazzled audiences worldwide in the 1920s and 30s. Born and raised in Round Rock, Barbette’s daring trapeze acts shattered gender norms and earned acclaim from icons like Jean Cocteau and Man Ray. After a decade-long campaign by historians and advocates, this recognition places Barbette among Texas’s most influential cultural figures — a milestone celebrated with a ceremony at 5 PM at the Round Rock Cemetery, followed by a reception downtown at Swallow Wines. It’s more than a plaque — it’s a tribute to an artist who redefined performance, LGBTQ+ history, and what it means to be a trailblazer.
