No 2019. gada darbu ir uzsācis Baltijas Kultūras fonds, kas paredzēts kopīgiem kultūras projektiem starp Latviju, Lietuvu un Igauniju. 

Baltijas Kultūras fonds atbalsta profesionālus pasākumus un projektus arhitektūrā, vizuālajā mākslā, dizainā, literatūrā, mūzikā, skatuves mākslā, bibliotēku, muzeju un arhīvu nozarēs, kā arī finansēs starpdisciplinārus projektus.
Fonda prioritāte ir atbalstīt jaunus, vienreizējus kultūras pasākumus ārpus Baltijas valstīm, piemēram, koncertus, izstādes, festivālus, izrādes, starptautiskus pasākumus, kuros galvenā uzmanība pievērsta Baltijas reģionam, kā arī pasākumus, kas veicina kultūras internacionalizāciju.
Fonda darba valoda ir angļu valoda.

Baltic Culture Fund promotes cultural cooperation between Baltic States, in order to strengthen the internationalisation of Estonian, Latvian and Lithuanian culture through joint cultural events. Grants are distributed once a year.

The Fund is administrated by national cultural endowments on a three-year rotation basis. From 2025 Baltic Culture Fund is administrated by Lithuanian Council for Culture.
