I think the Plastic Arts are those that produce 3 dimensional works. Like
Ceramics or Sculpture. Or those that are meant to be viewed as entities,
like painting, architecture, graphic arts, etc., as opposed say, to those
involving music which appeal to a different sense.

Perhaps the Tarragona Dixieland Festival also includes them to draw more
audience? Or maybe it is just a tradition of some sort in an artistic
setting? 

Cheers,
