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.
