I saw this work, by making a presentation for a high school art enrichment
class, a group of people with whom I normally couldn't communicate much at
all, being a math major with no art talent.

Two friends and I set the class down with three Amiga 1000's, showed them
how to get started, then set them loose with Deluxe Paint.  Kids that had
never touched a computer before were doing commercial quality work (some of
them ;-) within 40 minutes, and were unabashedly enthusiastic.

So, I suggest getting the proper hardware and software tools to let them do
what they know how to do (art) until they are comfortable touching a computer,
then ...lure... them into trying your communications package once the initial
"If I touch it, I'll break it" anxiety has been overcome.

Only problem is ever getting your computers back, once they find out how nice
it is to do art on them.  ;-)
