You're not going to convey much useful information in 15 minutes, but
you can do something inspiring.  A couple of years ago I saw a video -
probably by Marco Berringer - that showed a CL/emacs expert solving a
nontrivial problem.  I was purely amazed at the amount of code that
appeared on the screen in a short length of time, and the stuff that
had been accomplished by the end of the short video.

So wow 'em (especially if you're comfortable with emacs).  Announce
that you're going to build a webserver, take five minutes to install
Clojure and Lein from scratch, then the last ten minutes to do a
Compojure app.  They don't have to understand much of what you're
doing; explain only in general terms as you proceed, don't get bogged
in the details - it'll only slow you down, and you want to be
productive.  Hopefully they'll come away impressed and wanting to know
more.
