In 2023 the founder of Spirit Arts Elizabeth Mellen asked Jane Furst to be Lead Artist and co curator of the Installation exhibition for 'Come Eat with Me' on The Table for the Nation which was at Rochester Cathedral for 2024.

It was to depict roundel icon-like placements to represent Christ and his disciples inspired by Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper. Eighteen artists from Kent were invited to participate. Jane Furst painted and worked on five of the 25 roundels which were placed around the table.

One reference for the idea was The Dinner Party by Judy Chicago. The second exhibition for Spirit Arts, co curated by Jane Furst and Janice Emmott, is called Spirit Animals. Again this uses icon-like gold leafed roundels. It has been shown at St Mary's' Burham, and Rochester Cathedral.
