Cindy, if you can make it to the city of Vamberk, there is a beautiful lace museum. I am assuming that when you mention beads and blown glass that you'll be traveling to Jablonec. Vamberk is only about 2 hours from there, so you might be able to swing it.
In Prague itself, there are often small exhibitions taking place in local galleries and the fiber arts tech school. If you reach out to me closer to the date, I can check on what's available. >From the ongoing exhibits, I'd recommend the jewish museum in Prague which carries some amazing golden wire lace and I also hear that the museum of industrial design is reopening and will likely have some lace on exhibit. The folk museum (Naprstkovo muzeum) tends to have folk costumes on display which feature variety of lace. Hope this help, feel free to reach out to me direct for details.
