Client Spotlight Series: National Coast Guard Museum

National Coast Guard Museum Association is building something meaningful right here in New London — and we had the honor of helping tell a story that represents its heart.

Objective: Celebrate a legacy and inspire support for the future museum.

Challenge: How do you capture a lifetime of service, passion, and patriotism in a way that moves people to act?

Solution:
Astor Place Inc. created a documentary-style piece featuring Lois Bouton — a WWII Coast Guard veteran, Honorary Chief Petty Officer, and lovingly known as “The Coast Guard Lady.”
Through her own words, we shared a story of lifelong dedication — and her wish that, in honor of her 96th birthday, people would support the museum instead of sending gifts.

Impact:
A deeply human story that connects generations, builds emotional resonance, and drives awareness and support for a mission larger than any one person.
Some stories don’t just inform — they inspire action.

At Astor Place Inc., we help organizations turn experiences into compelling visual stories that inspire people to visit, explore, and engage.
If you run an attraction, destination, or experience-based business, now is the time to start telling that story.

We had the pleasure of creating a video for Copper Creek Mini Golf, and we’re happy to report it was a total hole in one.

The video became more than just a fun promo — it turned into a real driver of foot traffic and engagement.

A great on-site shoot, a great experience, and even better ROI for the Copper Creek team. Nothing we love more than creating content that looks great and works hard.
