The Orton Cone Box Show was a biennial ceramic art exhibition for small work that started in Indiana, United States and is now held in Kansas, United States. It was open to submissions from across the world.
The show's title was taken from the constraint on submissions, which must fit within the box in which Orton's pyrometric cones are shipped, 3" x 3" x 6" (approx. 75 mm x 75 mm x 150 mm.)
Submissions were adjudicated by up to four members of the ceramics art community in the United States, and exhibited during following year's the conference of the US National Council on Education for the Ceramic Arts.
