Whenever we do presentations, we like to emphasize that you don't need prior technical knowledge to join a team. Learning is part of the process. We also did well by talking to the sports-inclined community about how we built a robot that played basketball.

We got more artsy people involved through animation (which doesn't exactly apply anymore). Perhaps try recruiting through your school's art department. They could design team apparel or logos, maybe getting credit for it in class too. Even web design.

You really just need to look around. On our team at least, one person joins, then lures in their friends. We hit an all-time high team number this year at 21 students. I wish you luck with recruiting!
