Photography exhibitions in Liverpool

As part of the course I'm supposed to get to as many exhibitions as I can which is a bit awkward for me as I'm a full time carer for my Mum who is housebound after a small stroke a few years ago. I would love to get to London for a few days of cultural sightseeing but as that's not possible I'll have to make do closer to home.

I've already been to 2 this year.
